Crazymonkey Report post Posted September 18 Left the house Tues after work and headed up to our spot in 6a . My buddy Chuck had helped my last year with my dad and his buddies muzzleloader hunt . So it was my turn to repay the favor. Pulled in to what looked like a trailer park at camp . There was already 7 trailers at camp as I pulled in. Did some scouting and set stands. Friday night was a busy night as we got the call 2 6x6 elk were hit. One went thru the water and we were looking for blood and didn't find any so we went to check on the other bull as there was blood. The pool of blood looked promising but we backed out and went back in the morning . The 6 of us lost blood and grid searched for a few miles and didn't turn up anything. So we went to look for the other elk . No blood so just grid searched and turned up just elk on there feet and I found a good 5x5 dead head. So they were back at it Saturday . One 5x5 down and recovered in the morning then another that night made for a busy day. Sunday was just a few elk at water and Gonzo passed on a spike it's his first hunt. Come Monday we were loaded to go home as it's my 25 year anniversary and my wife said we're not staying. We'll right before we were ready to go the call came in Chuck had a bull down . How could I leave now . So off we went and we recovered his bull then left . Got some rain coming down the 87 right before the 260. Got home and unloaded the trailer and then got word Gonzo had a spike down . So the guys filled there tags. Just two more tags in camp Martin and his daughter have cow tags . So the hunt continues. I don't have all the pictures just yet as signal is spotty. 18 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazymonkey Report post Posted September 19 So the guys went in mid day yesterday and did a gut pile clean-up at the waterhole two elk were taken from and at 515 yesterday night another tag was filled ! Martin got his cow . Just 1 tag left and it's probably the most important to us . Martin's 14 year old has a cow tag! She's due to come back up Friday. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crazymonkey Report post Posted September 22 So after trying to help another hunter find his elk the guys came across a lion kill and it's real fresh . Chuck and Gonzo made a blind and we're going to see what happens. Chuck usually brings a ar15 for coyote. This could get interesting! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
