Hopefully, If I get to go it will be in Nevada watching the first come first served tags, I got a cow tag off it last year and filled it so hoping for a repeat.

I’m not, but please for those that do, take plenty of pics and keep notes of the hunt. Once y’all are back to civilization I want a huge write up with pics…and make me feel like I’m there!! And pics of the country you’re hunting along with the elk.

Nope, tried again for a Kansas bull tag but didn't draw one. So I added another preference point to the bucket. Maybe one of these days.

Didn't get my controlled tags this year --- so I am trying to decide if I will go general season or just make an extended deer season. General elk ends about the time trapping starts so not sure I will be ready for either.

Last time I went, I had to lead my horse to a rock to stump jus to get back in the saddle. Mountain hunting is a younger man’s game. And a skinnier man’s game as well. Sure is fun though.
