Elk Hunting

Well, I(Bob) got out for a few days this weekend to go Elk hunting in the Little Belt Mountains south of Stanford. I have a spot that I like a lot, its up on a ridge with some high meadows. It takes some hiking to get into, but its worth the walk which I think helps keeps some of the competition out. While I havent gotten an elk yet, I had a great experience on Sunday when a dozen elk appeared in front of me and moved by me within 30 yards. I could of taken anyone I wanted, but decided to hold off as 10 of them were cows and 2 where young spikes. Still looking for that bull elk, but I might get less picky in the next week or two. I couldnt risk moving to get the camera while the elk where close, but here are some pictures of the area I was hunting.
