Beautiful country, and as far as I'm concerned, there is no such thing as an unsuccessful hunt for elk.  Sounds like you had a great time!

Kenny, were they "singin'" at night at all? I've heard a few up here in Oregon over the past weekend.

Looks like some nice country and some good times. Elk have been tough for me too this year. I think I have been on yesterdays tracks since August 21. Thanks for sharing.
