When you say you never "had the right bull in range", does that mean you guys had set a minumum standard, or nothing? If so, what was your minumum size that you had decided on?
Sounds like fun to me. I hiked into a wilderness area here in CO. last weekend and stayed in an old cabin that someone has started actually fixing up. It was pretty sweet to get up at the crack of dawn and already be at the top of the mtn.
