No problems with the truck out there this year Michael and no need to feel bad about the horseback plans we had. It just wasn't meant to be, but maybe one of these days we can get together and I can see some of the beautiful country up where you live!
I was out for 7 weeks and had a great time like I always do. My best buddy over in Sheridan got a B&C buck antelope that will break the 82" mark and another buddy got a bull that will go around the 330" mark. Another friend missed a nice bull and his boy got a nice 4x4 mulie in the short weekend they had to hunt with us. The one other guy at camp for a few days was Travishunter3006 on this site and he also shot a real nice 4x4 mulie. I was after a big mulie I saw last year and spotted him 3 times again this year, but just couldn't get a good percentage shot at him and passed.
It's looking like we are going to go on a guided horseback hunt next year in Region G so I can burn my 6PPs and get out of that rat race, LOL! That's about the only way I can do a high country hunt now at my age. My buddy in Sheridan can hunt that on his general OTC tag, so it looks like the plan will be to do that hunt and maybe some DIY time down there if we don't fill both deer tags and then come up to our normal area in early October for some antelope and elk hunting. If John draws a LE bull tag, I'll probably go out early and help him on a bow hunt in September before we head down late in the month for the deer hunt.
I got snowed out again up in northern MI like last year, but got in the first week of the season before bailing out of the cabin on Friday. I'll still be able to hunt with my ML around home here this week and then we have a separate ML 3 week season next month, so I'll be busy until about Christmas time. Good luck on your late season elk hunt and congrats on the whitetail!
