Ya that somme area is poor poor poor. The land is quite heavy to begin with and there is not alot of natural drainages in the fields for the water to follow so it just pools and its there till the ground soak er in. We are quite lucky because the river touches just about every piece of land we own therefore the water often drains down into that. I am afraid lots of guys will be calling it quits after this year. If anyone wants to rent land head up there. I have pics back home i will have to get of a 16ft diameter culvert bent 20 feet up in the airlike a horseshoe from the water levels this spring. Insanity. As for the elk, i heard of a husband and wife taking 2 bulls this morning off my neighbors land. My buds are prowling my land and having some difficulty with neighboring hunters and quads b4 noon. Hopefully they get that sorted out and kill some white ass.
