Stumping and Scouting with pics...
« on: April 07, 2012, 04:52:00 PM »
Headed a little ways South to check out a new area for elk and turkeys, I found some beautiful country (not hard in CO), but no sign of the turkeys...

Maybe next weekend I'll get lucky and find some. At the very least I'll be spending time in a gorgeous place with a good buddy or two, livin' the dream...

 

 

 

 

It was hazy and windy yesterday, but that didn't stop us from roaming around a little while.

 

 

 

More pics to come...

Found some elk sign, looks like a promising area...

Sorry for the shotgun shell, my buddy can't make up his mind sometimes...

Look closely and you can see some Tiger salamanders in this little pool:

 


 

 

 

There were at least a dozen in here. I guess they only enter water to mate so we got kinda lucky to see so many at once.

Love those western views!
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
