Monthly Wapiti Talk Photo Contest - December 2017

The December 2017 Photo Theme is – "Elk Sign". Yep, let's see some photos that show where elk have been ;)
Rules:

1. One photo submission allowed per month, per member (yep, MODs may enter a photo also).
2. Photo must relate to the monthly theme (or risk being disqualified).
3. Do not use photo editing software to enhance your photo. Just post the photo as it was taken with your camera, smart phone, trail cam, etc. You may have to resize some photos so they are accepted by the forum software.
4. You may use older photos you have on hand, but, do not submit a photo that has won a previous WT photo contest.
5. Any WT member may enter a photo they have taken or star in.
6. Judging – WT members will vote on monthly photo submissions.
7. Contest period will normally end the last day of the month.
8. Winner must contact WapitiTalk1 via PM and provide mailing address for prize (your prize may be sent directly from a WT sponsor or from RJ).
9. Prizes will vary from month to month.

* At the end of the year, all monthly contest winners will be automatically entered into a Photo of the Year Contest.

The prize for December's will be a sample from Paleo Meals to Go!

Winner, winner....Paleo Meals to Go Dinner! Looks like old Swede grabbed the winning prize for the DEC 17 Photo of the Month contest. Thanks again to all who entered, those who took the time to vote, and the December sponsor donation from Paleo Meals to Go.... I'll get the 2017 Photo of the Year thread up and running soon.. No need to send me your mailing address Swede, it's just General Delivery, Outback, OR.... right? :D

I am sure that address will work. Don't bother with a zip code as the U.S. Mule doesn't understand that new fangled stuff. I am looking forward to trying the Paleo meals. I was planning to wait to make an order, but now I can try one or two, then decide what I want. Thanks. That is a special prize. :D

I will try one as soon as I can, and give you an honest Swede report. If the meals are good, as a back pack meal, I will let you know. If they are not good: well ... it sucks to be them. :D

The instructions are simple enough that even the average bow hunter can read and understand them. "Open bag, add one cup of boiling hot water, reseal the bag, shake contents to distribute the water evenly and let stand for two minutes. Your delicious Paleo meal is ready to eat." I have never seen one of the meals, but how close do you think I have come to knowing what it will say? :D
