Big Browns Report post Posted April 16, 2012 I took my wife shed hunting last weekend to look for her first Elk shed. She was really excited to start looking. I have been showing her all the pictures of the sheds that you guys have been finding. She has been very jealous of all the shed that other people have found. She has got the bug really bad. We hiked for about 4 hours. We only found this one shed, but her reaction was worth it. When she first saw it she screamed ELK. I thought she had seen an Elk, but a second later she starts screaming "I FOUND ONE, I FOUND ONE". I was so proud of her. I tried to get her to calm down so I could take a few pictures, but she kept walking around looking for another one. When I finally got her to stop she said “HURRY UP, I WANT TO FIND ANOTHER ONE". It was very exciting and really funny! We continued to look for another couple of hours, but no more luck! I took her out again this past weekend, but no luck. She was a trooper! I walked her 6-7 miles both Sat & Sun. Sat was nasty out. It rained and snowed on us, but she never complained about it. She kept saying “let’s go whare the horns are ". I tried to explain to her that the sheds could be any ware and we have to keep covering ground and look for sign. She did a great job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pixman Report post Posted April 17, 2012 Congrats to you guys, I know that feeling of hiking and getting very discouraged not finding anything and then you see a shed laying there and it is an awesome feeling! I was excited about finding the small 4 point and then the 6 point close by was icing on the cake! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
