[QUOTE="JMF, post: 182651, member: 869"] Got back late last night. Had to make a change of plans when we got there, the area and elevation we wanted to go to was covered in 2 feet of snow. So we set up base camp at around 7000ft. We were in elk every day and saw some darn nice bulls, also found lots of pressure. Calling was useless so we found ourselves trying to simply pattern them and try to get in front of them when we could. Just couldnt get the sun, moon, stars and wind to all line up. What I wouldnt have given for some ND 40mph straight line winds. We didnt have much trouble getting within that 100 yard mark several times, so it was a pretty awesome hunt. Already getting things ready for next year. I was pretty happy with how the new gear perfomed, even though we didnt get to do the high country camping. Darn glad we had a buddy heater for the big tent. Good luck to you guys. Here is a pic of my buddy through the spotter sneaking on a nice bull about 2 minutes before the wind switched and he was busted. [ATTACH=CONFIG]17023._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
