I guess that would be similar to ringing a dinner bell for them if they started announcing themselves like we would have liked to hear.
The wolf pack was 12-1300 yards down a valley, and across a river, so NO we didn't do our part and start slinging lead their way. They were trying to soak up a bit of late morning sunshine, but always getting up and moving a bit every half hour. That many wolves would sure put a "bite" on the wildlife numbers, and yet we still found and saw a fair bit of game. It was a fun week.

How do you find the elk hunting down in 400? I've been thinking of hiking into the castle park for a general bull. Is it worth it? Have you hunted down there on more than a few occasions?
