Being that we are all talking about elk lately, I thought I would post about an interesting thing I saw last year. Early in September in one of my usual elk areas, I was noticing a good population of big Mule deer. So once November 7th came, I figured I would head in to glass some big mule deer. I hiked about 4 km in on an old cut block and could hear what sounded like elk mewes. So I walked in very silent and came to an opening and seen with out a word of a lie, at least 120 head of elk. I sat an watched over 10 bulls ,5pts and 6 points just screaming their heads off and chasing the cows and fighting each other. so may firsts for me on elk hunting. I have never seen a herd that big and I have never seen elk rutting in November.
