^ Sounds like fun!
Lots of action yesterday evening and today in the morning. Was great hunting weather, for a change. Got pretty soaked yesterday though, but we did see some elk, at last. A few does and very nice 5x5. He was close enough but never got himself in the position for my cousin to take a shot. He then took off, but came back to calling and stayed out of view. So no dice. A couple more bulls responded but never exposed themselves. One got pretty angry and destroyed quite some bush around him, which we saw after we found the spot.
I also finally got to go and do some scouting for the first time since June, probably, to the field where I am planning to take a cow elk comes the rifle season. No elk around and not much sign either. It was pretty dry though, so hard to find any decent tracks and such. We will see.
