He probably just fancied himself as following the science? Hope the roads stay firm, and have fun. We all know what a bad idea following science is, heck you might even end up demoted. Why just look at NOAA, better to have a political appointee in charge with no scientific back ground who is happy to promote the admins agenda no matter what the data is. https://www.businessinsider.com/noaa-sci...science-2020-10

The end of day one (for my tag)...  My tool of the trade...  The target species...  The day after (backing up a buddy)...  The Great Spirit was generous with us. Filled two of three tags. Getting everything back to the truck was (as usual) the real challenge. As has been mentioned here before, age is a monster. Back at home now, facing reality. Colorado is Covid-crazy yet again.

I'm jealous. Didn't fill my elk tag this year. I hope she tastes good.

Thanks Ryan. In almost 30-years of doing this I've only had the animals get this close one time before. She never saw me until I mounted my rifle when she was, at most, 40-yards away. Hit her at the base of the neck with the round quartering though to just under the skin below the backstrap about midsection (which is why my photograph of her looks so "peaceful"). Accordingly, she should eat well.

If you were west slope, then Yes, Columbian. I collected mine outside of Craig. East slope are plains Sharptails.

For some reason I can't get that photo to display. There was a gang of birds along the edge of the road and this was the last one to depart. First time I've ever seen them there. If I might ask, what makes them "Columbian"? [img] https://i.imgur.com/7eM54b6h.jpg?1[/img]
