High country elk in September!

[Justin Snyder]

Justin, a marathon runner would be handy to have in camp. You could just run around a small herd and drive them past  the hunters shooting lane.  L.O.L.       Kennrth

Im all over that.

[Pat B]

If i get the opportunity to put an arrow in one you guys will hear me from where you are! 

[Little John]

I guess that answers the question about if we need walkie talkies. You areright Pappy, life is very good.         Kenneth

[Little John]

I am dead beat from working and trying to get all my work done so we can get gone on this trip. Makes me hesitant to shoot any thing right away and have to go back to work packing meat. I guessPat will probably mess that up and shoot a big one first morning. Well that will be ok, he can have camp chores. Just funning, Pat I hope you get the biggest one on the mountain.   Kenneth

[Pat B]

I'll take the first one that gives me an opportunity. 
  Sent my pack to you today Kenneth. Should be at your house Monday or Tuesday.  It weighs in at just under 40#.  Bows and arrows going out tomorrow morning so they should be a day or 2 behind the pack.
  I'll be dead tired when I get in to Durango. Will be getting up at 3:30am our time(1:30am your time) to catch a 5:30am flight and get to Durango a little before noon your time. Most of that time sitting on a plane or in the terminal(2 layovers). Don't know if I can hike in that day. We both might need the rest of that day to just chill and get stuff together.  We can make that call when the time comes. Two weeks from Today!!!!! 

[lowell]

  Best of luck of luck on your trip...can't wait to see pictures!!!

[Pat B]

Bows and arrows went in the mail today! Won't be long now. 
  Thanks Lowell. I will have pics to show after Sept 10.
