Elk Season opens here on the Palouse - I'll be there. (so does deer but they are safe from me until much later in the year)

Actually it is rifle season but who cares, I'm still using a ML. As some of you know I have been working in the timber for the FS this summer, but surprisingly I have not really had time to do much scouting. It is so warm and dry here, I have not been ble to get into the thermal covered area where they are probably hanging out.

I'm off this morning to drive into a couple of those areas looking, listening, and smelling.

Good luck to everyone that is getting ready to start the best time of the year... just wish it lasted longer....
