Elk hunting '09

These are a lot of random pictures from this past elk season.

Little brookie that lives in a mtn stream.

Del's elk from this year. His second bull in a row with a longbow.
Dale found this skull during the season.
Danny killed this bull this year. His 4th bull in 5 years.
No matter what I do, this pictures is coming in sidways! I QUIT TRYING! Anyways, big bloodtrail from a narrow two blade broadhead.
Danny's elk as he found it.
I went hunting with Del and his Dad this year. I had a rough trip, but it was an absolute blast. Here is an evening in camp.
A view from camp.
My tent and gear tarp. I really enjoyed that tent.
Another view of my camping spot.
The llamas packing all of our gear up the mountain. That was nice!
Getting the llamas loaded.
An elk skull that me and Danny found. We kept the ivories from this skull, we both had one of the teeth in our pocket when we killed our bulls this year. Gonna hold on to that thing until I lose it now...

Another view of the bull.
Neat view of the sun peaking through a hole in the trees.

That's it until next year, dang it!

My CO Elk

I got a spike this year elk hunting with my Mohawk longbow. Here a few pictures of the hunt.

Scouting Elk

Danny did some elk scouting and took these pictures. He found this huge moose about 5 miles from the nearest road.

Old Pictures

Found these old pics the other day. This was during my first elk hunting season. I was 13 years old, and I made a 40+ yard shot on this grouse. I would love to have back some of the opportunities that I blew that season. At one point I thought that an elk was going to step on and break my bow, which was laying at my feet...what a fun year of learning that was!

Danny shot this cow when we were in high school. I think we skipped our last few classes of the day and went elk hunting instead. If I remember right, he killed this elk when we were supposed to be in gym class...

'09 Colorado Turkey Outing

I should have titled this post Colorado Stump Shooting, because that's we ended up doing. The turkeys had moved into higher parts of the mountains. Saw lots of deer, elk tracks, and bear tracks. Had a great time nonetheless.
