Bear hunting

Postby Lefty » 05 04, 2018 •  [Post 1]

On an elk forum?
I placed baits for bears Wednesday and Thursday, but in reality spent my time scouting for elk,. Jumped a few cows from beds, and spotted elk groups of 4,5,6,7 9, 11, 13 15 and 25. Now granted most of the elk are below 8000 feet on the south facing slopes and virtually no elk in the north facing snow covered slopes.
Most of my time was spent waundering around a piece of ground Ive overlooked for years. Our last day of the season, the last hours we left the woods with 7 bugling bulls.
My wifes big concern was " how are you going to get an elk out of there? My buddy mentioned if he was coming up to help pack it better have lots of horn :o
I pointed to my daughters horse.

I did come across wolf tracks made Wednesday morning after the previous days snow melted. Placed a couple trail cams. Its just nice to be in the woods
