AZ8 Report post Posted September 8, 2017 Done! My vacation has started! Hope to head out Tuesday morning and have camp up and running by lunch! I'll have a couple days for some final scouting and then it's go time. Gear is semi-organized and staged, waiting to be loaded up in the truck. Final task involves grocery shopping this weekend. 10 day forecast is showing dry and warm conditions starting late next week. Sitting water may be a good strategy. Good luck everyone!

Flatlander Report post Posted September 8, 2017 Headed out Wednesday afternoon. Work is killing me, it's going to be a rough weekend instead of being a final scouting session. But the forecast I saw shows a temp drop just before next Friday. Hoping that gets them going a bit more than they were last time I was up. I can't believe it's almost here. I have butterflies almost like before a wrestling match or a big test. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AZ8 Report post Posted September 9, 2017 Decided to check the battery in my truck today. Guy hooked it up and said....."You need a new battery. Not much left in this". It gave me no indication it was getting close. Thankfully still under warranty and I got a new battery at no charge. Dodged a bullet for elk camp! Whew!
