The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

Did your brother hunt after you got your bull?  With 2 of you hunting, do you pack it in when either gets his bull?

Congrats on a very nice bull!!  Great story, too.

This is absolutely the best story that I have read this year!  You have a great way with words and you tied the story with the pictures together beautifully.

I especially like your tenacity for finding your elk and the respect shown for the animal as you approached it.

p.s.  You have a nice looking camp also!

Great job!!!     :clapper:
