Be sure to tell your son what the real name of the Tetons means

Not to derail this thread, but my “heavy chested” grandma had a sweatshirt that had “Tetons” written right across the chest. We were walking down the street one day in Salt Lake City, and these two French men stopped her, looked at her shirt, and just cracked up laughing. She couldn’t figure out why, until I looked at her sweatshirt for the first time today, started laughing as well, and explained to her what it meant. She immediately went into a bathroom and turned her sweatshirt inside out. Always makes me chuckle to this day thinking about grandma and her Tetons sweatshirt.

This is shaping up to be great.
Hope you all have a blast and he gets a nice bull.

Checked the webcam downtown, looks like lights or tree lighting on the Square?
Busy but might be fun to go check it out.

Good luck on the hunt !

Good luck on your hunt. We just got back down to the hotel. 2 days 10 plus mile each days and no elk harmed and Not much elk but I can either pm you some details or if you want to pm your phone number I can get you some Info on a starting point at least

Big bulls always move onto the refuge first

Man when you first posted about drawing a tag it seemed like you were looking for excuses to not go and I was thinking no matter what happens its a experience of a lifetime with your 16 year old son you shouldn't miss out on. Well done on making it happen and good parenting right there. Good luck and enjoy the moment!

I put my son in for it this year, but he didn’t draw. I know individuals that have had great hunts and not so great times. Having access to good horses would increase your success. My chiropractor nephew drew this year as his first time applying. The only downside is if he kills a monster bull he will be ruined for life. Best of luck

Hoping and waiting ....

If we were hunting sunrises instead of elk we got a trophy today. That’s for sure. Amazing place.

Wyoming has gorgeous sunrises and sunsets in spades

Looks like you are in the right spot
Keep at it they are in there
If I wasn't out of town I would come give you a hand
Try to get angles on any cover and glass it
Move a bunch

Not today, one got shot about 300 yds from us but that’s as close as we came. Walked about 12 mi and seen 1 set of elk tracks!!! Not many elk on refuge but we will be at it again tomorrow.

3 shots was all we heard and 2 of them went into the same elk.

Do you know what the elk was that was shot today? Bull or cow?
Have a great time tomorrow and have fun!
