Back from whirlwind Wyoming Elk scouting mission
« on: August 20, 2012, 10:47:00 PM »
Mad dash up Friday, made it back this evening. VERY dry up there. Got to meet Tracy(Shedrock) and (FerretWyo)Randy. Two class acts for sure. Both are really tough on the critter population!

We recieved great insight from both of you guys and really enjoyed our visit! A priceless wealth of information was heaped upon us in a very short time.

Tracy went WAY out of his way to shows around and was our tour guide for the better part of a day. Thanks so much for that Tracy!

We'll be headed back out around the 10th. Randy, did you get the message about 13 instead of 110?

Saw the south end of a north bound cow and that was about it. I feel good about our A,B,and C plans though. Without all the help from tradgangers though, we'd be going blind for sure.

CAn't wait to get back up there!
