My brother in-law did send me a message other day where DNR said the herd was doing well. My sister tends 3-4 cameras for the DNR snapshot WI. Her cameras are located in high number area. So she has lots of elk photos on at least a couple of them. It's is interesting how many different critters she gets photos of on the trail cams. Actually pretty varied selection. I myself have not seen another close up elk since the ones I started this post with. Ive seen track along trail when out on the quads or back roading. I don't drive around just looking for them so haven't seen any standing along road. Mac "Never Forget Which Way Is Up"

When I drew the wolf tag in the second season before it went away. Then actually caught my wolf before the quota filled and I had to go back for a dose of chemo. I ask my son about applying for elk and he just was interested. Not sure why? Think it was maybe waiting until it isn't a competition? I have a bear tag for this fall and I have decided it will be the last time I apply. Mac "Never Forget Which Way Is Up!" "Never Forget Which Way Is Up"
