Hunting Utah elk this year!
« on: May 18, 2011, 04:56:00 PM »
Well after 9yrs of putting in I drew a LE elk tag in Utah. Really pumped! I'm already starting to think of stuff I need to do, prepare for, pack....man, it's only May!!!  "Just like a little kid" as my wife would say.

Cacciatore, I'll miss not getting to meet you up in the "Oregon Alps". You'll have a great time while you're here!

Anyone have any helpful info. on the Manti unit? I'll be getting there a few days before the hunt and will try and put in the miles to check the lay of the land out as best as can be done with only this much time. I'll been trying to topo map scout out different areas to look at. Lots of ground to consider!

You're right there Whip. I think this could be the looongest June, July, and most of August on record! haha

Shinken, I'll have my gear fine tuned many times over by the opener. I am on a mission.
