MT_Sourdough Report post Posted August 13, 2018 Things change fast. The south east area of 8 got pounded by rain Thursday and Friday. Bear Tank went from bone dry for 6 months to overflowing. The fresh vegetation is finally starting to sprout. DT Tank on the rim never went entirely dry, but close. So far it is only about 20% full. The critters in the south half of 8 are starting to spread out, getting back into areas they have vacated since spring. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

azelkhunter69 Report post Posted August 13, 2018 Was in 8 this weekend. Rained Friday afternoon and then again in the middle of the night. Then got more rain and hail about 4am. Hit or miss. Some tanks were really low and then I saw a pretty big one that would be overflowing with about another foot. Did see my first rub of the year though. Heading back in a couple weeks to check out some more spots and put some cameras out. Put one out this weekend on a wallow. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wildwoody is right, bucks are still in velvet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildwoody Report post Posted August 14, 2018 Rain is good but high humidity won't help the rut, had 5bs in 2012 they were rutting 3 days in the whole hunt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1uofacat Report post Posted August 20, 2018 I was in 8 this past weekend and some of the roads that are typically impassible are "finally" that way again (wasn't the case 2 weeks ago). It only takes a week or two of dry weather for them all to open up again, so access shouldn't be a concern soon. We also had hail/rain Saturday too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
