Yes, scouting already! Mama and I hopped in the Jeep and headed up into the hills today and had one heck of a great day. It snowed on us. It was sunny. The road was dry. The road was muddy. We went through snow drifts. We winched a fallen tree out of the way. We saw elk, then we saw some more elk. What a great day! Here's a few photos:
Drove up through the orchards into higher country:
Found moms & youngsters, some with spike antlers, or one or two branches:
And later, higher, we found the bigger boys:
Our way was blocked by a fallen tree for a bit, but that problem was quickly resolved:
Got back to lower elevations, washed the Jeep and called it good for the day. Not bad for a 40 mile loop from home.
