Nothing yet, but things are looking good for tonight!

Tim had a spike at 12 yards (he's across the ridge), but nothing else.

Cold calling in blizzard like conditions right now.....with no luck.

Called in about a dozen elk last night, but only cows, spikes and small bulls cleared the thick stuff. Had a good 5x6 at 25 yards, but neither of us could get a shot.

Plenty of time left in the season, but i hope they start making noise soon!

"Had a good 5x6 at 25 yards, but neither of us could get a shot."

Aron, you expect me to believe that? I know you better than that, you could have easily banked one off the tree or skipped it into the goody box.

This is brutal. Morning of day 5 and have heard two bugles the entire trip. I thought the rut would be red hot, but it is far from that. Five days left so I am hoping things change for the better.

Stick with it and stay positive I'm sure you guys are in good elk country, I've got a feeling they will be going hard in a day or two...

Had a 5x6 come in, but he eventually winded us....

Hiking out now and heading to another area in the AM.
