Scouting trip

Spent some time in my elk area for the last couple of days. A bit of hiking and looking let me see some really good country; only one elk spotted, but the area looked pretty promising for September. A few pics:
This little creek yielded several decent rainbows:
The flowers and foliage really benefitted from a wet spring:
Some more potential good elk country come September:
I had better be in shape in a month or two:

Great pics, Pat. I'm already kicking myself for not returning to the Bighorns this September. Thanks for taking us along.

Fishnhunt, I pics were taken with a Canon SX10is, using either manual or aperture preferred mode. I use ISO 80. The shots were handheld.
The scenes are in Elk Area 34 in the Bighorns.

In 1985 I hunted the south side of the highway leading from Lovell to Sheridan in the Bighorns. Packed in about 3 hours. On Tuesday before the season opened I walked into a beaver meadow off this highway and took pictures from 12 yards of a Shiras Moose that would be killed the next morning by a bowhunter from Sheridan. It stood as the Shiras world record for a few years. It was huge! Beautiful country.
