No, wasn't me BrushChimp. I've been going in off of Elk Creek Rd. If you take Elk Creek Rd 'til it becomes gravel, then take the 2nd road to the left(45something?). I have been hunting along the Seven Creek area. I've found some fresh elk sign, but have yet to see an elk. That creek bottom on either side of the road gives access to several ridges and clearcuts, which seems to be the attraction. The downside is it's lots of thick ground to cover for 1 guy over a few days. I'm going back down Saturday morning, and staying the remainder of the weekend. Hopefully I can get lucky and locate elk like I did on the last weekend of the first season. BrushChimp, I'm wide open to suggestions on how to hunt this area. You can shoot me an e-mail if you want.

They are calling for rain, so I have to decide whether it's the Chevy with a tarp over the bed for my bed, or the mini-van without the seats for my bed. They're both 2WD, so I'm not doing any serious off-roading anyway. I could bring a hunting video to watch in the mini-van while I'm eating dinner though. What do you guys think?

Hunt hard, live right, and tell your kids you love 'em!
