              This is about how our hunt in unit 76 in Idaho went last week except the temps were in the 20's early heating up to the 80's in the afternoon. Sure makes it hard to dress accordingly.

              We saw 2 cows with calves and 1 spike. Never heard a sound. We cut some wolf tracks and think that may have shut them up.

              We would leave camp around 3:30, drive around an hour, horseback in around an hour, hunt all day, and then reverse the travels returning to camp around 10:30. That routine sure made for a long tough hunt.

                  I'm headed back up in the morning to try to get that mule deer tag filled.

                  I've got one hunting buddy still needing to fill two elk tags (either sex and a cow tag), and two more coming up next Sunday with either sex elk tags to fill as well.

                  I'll be out for 12 days this time.
