Does anyone know if the rim road is closed? Me and family want to go camping and fishing at knoll lake this weekend but cant figure out if the rim/lake will closed or open. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

just curious due to the govt shutdown

My dads bull also in 4a from last year. Both our first time hunting 4A. Shot a few days apart and less then a 1/4 mile from each other.

This is the bull I took out of 4A last year. I was drawn again this year for the same unit.

cc hit on 3/21 for elk. Whats the earliest anyones card got hit?

I have the rhino 650 and it is a touch screen. while i havent been in heavy rains i have used it while it rains and the screen gets water drops on it and it works fine. I do try to keep it out of the rain as much as i can but it has gotten somewhat wet and worked.

awesome!! I got one in 4A too!

This was my first time ever hunting 4a for anything. My first elk was a spike. I know have a spike, javelina, Black bear, and now this bull elk. All where shot in 5bn with a bow other the the bear that was with a rifle but 5bn as well. I was going up about every 2-3 weeks to 4a since end of may hiking around to get to know the area. each trip other then the first trip up there, that one was just driving the roads to get to know the area, I logged about 10-15 miles on my gps of hiking into areas. sometimes more since i started to really know the area and didnt need to use the gps to get to some areas. My bull I shot sunday evening the 16th

I had to pack it out since I was in an no motor vehicle area. Hard work does pay off.

congrats awesome elk!

Thanks everyone. I passed on a spike friday evening and another small bull on sunday morning. I was in bulls every morning and night. I either passed or was getting busted due to wind and them coming from wrong direction. I had to pack him out about a mile and half to the truck. skull, horns, and hide weighed more then half my body weight. we roled the hide up like a tube sock and cut off at 2nd vertebrae because thats what someone told us to do for a shoulder mount. later I find out i could have cut off more to save my back a little. but it was an awesome feeling walking through the forest all the way back to the truck with the horns on my back.

Im confused when I click on the link I get f150 raptor but it says f250 raptor. Are they making a 3/4 raptor or just a typo?

I did buy it already. I did buy it from cabelas due to the fact that they have a 90 day return policy if they do not work for the hunt. only bad thing is I will lose my gps hunting maps I bought for both units. We have used them on our last scouting trip and while we havent been real far away from each other we where about 0.6 miles from each othere and they worked great. they were really clear compared to our midland radios we had before. I know the .6 miles isnt far but they seem to be better then our midland radios are as far as clearity. The biggest reason for the radio was being able to see each others location. well mainly for my dad since he tends to get lost in his surroundings real easy. We have been always been taking turns as who hunts what days and have hunted together or I drop him off at his location and pick him back up on my way back. But we are planning on hunting seperate this year and this is our only option to locate each other. Although the gps is working great even though its been short distances the gps hunting maps i bought for it the best thing i have ever bought in the past few years. Thanks you guys for all of your feedback. Justin

I have a garmin etrax venture hc right now it works ok for tracking way points but I am looking to upgrade to the rhino 650 gps radio since I hunt with my dad a lot. We use to just hunt together and we had cheap radios if we split up a little. But we now we are starting to hunt on our own and we are looking at getting the rhino 650 to be able to keep track of where each are at. My question is how well does the 650 work over the 610? Is there a better gps setup out there we should be looking at? Are there down sides over this gps vs getting just a radio and continue using are current gps we each have. Thanks

Thanks. I ended up keeping the order with cabelas although almost cancelled it but figured i live in peoria figured gas and time to drive to mesa i wouldnt save a lot. I did call the one in phoenix but they did not have any left but one which was handled by everyone so i passed on that one too.

Thanks everyone for vote. I really appericate it! Voting ends Aug 9th at midnight.

A trail cam packaged valued at 400 bucks

I added the link to the first post. Please vote and thank-you

Thanks you guys! needed to get something soon due to the fact this year we are hunting in a totally new unit to us so I went ahead and ordered the 650 from cabelas as they had them for 440 on sale instead of 500 plus 20 bucks off with a code. which 420-440 is what i could find them online for but i figured i would purchase it from somewhere i can easily take it back it if it does not work for our needs.

Did you have the 1 watt or the 5 watt model?
