LAST EDITED ON Nov-18-19 AT 05:54PM (MST)[p]Anyone not find a buck in White Pine? If you know particulars, I have coordinates and directions.

LAST EDITED ON Jul-13-17 AT 10:53PM (MST)[p]I got my niece, Zoe, and nephew, Wolfe, to pose with my 400 set. They're not practiced at it, so they're a bit goofy on the posing part. The curvature to the set makes the front view deceptive. (I have looked for this year's set off the bull some 7...

LAST EDITED ON May-09-17 AT 10:36PM (MST)[p]LAST EDITED ON May-09-17 AT 10:33?PM (MST) LAST EDITED ON May-09-17 AT 07:37?PM (MST) Hey, I got lucky and found myself a 400 set (gross). Yep! Anyway, the belief is that this elk is 3rd on a list that just got released of 2016 harvested bulls...

LAST EDITED ON Apr-24-17 AT 00:39AM (MST)[p]Go ahead, give it a go on the big set in the middle. Notice that Creek isn't sitting under the vehicle; he is just behind it. Some shots of my spring break hikes. This is the ATL of the first side of the good set. It took over an hour to find...

Hiked through dry hills, snowy slopes, and melting muddy ridges to a familiar spot. 54+ inch beam. Now, where in the heck is the other side!

I walked right by this. Found the first side down the draw. Doubled back looking for the match, and dang!

Yep, it is plenty hot out in the woods, but there are plenty of antlers out there if you keep looking. Speaking of which: And, a little closer: Posed. (The 4ths on these go 24+.) Here's a li'l kicker 7-point I found on the hike out: Another day with a tough spot to start...

LAST EDITED ON Aug-01-13 AT 00:46AM (MST)[p]I came across a bull elk carcass last weekend with sawed-off antlers. Why would this happen? I talked to a ranch youngster who lives in the area who said he found a couple like that in another part of the same area. Explanations?

Saw a little 2-point buck today with his old antlers - I looked close with the binoculars to be sure. Got me to wondering if anyone had seen many bulls still packing? In a couple of places I've just been to and didn't find anything, maybe it's still too early for some of them? In those places...

LAST EDITED ON Mar-17-13 AT 00:06AM (MST)[p]Tis the season to not share I guess, so I'll bite and post up a couple. Got lucky on a fresh set today as I came across a rig parked on a side road in the area where I planned to hike. This rarely happens around here. I hiked further along to avoid...

Do the ATV-driving shed hunters seem to be off to quite the start this year or it just my perception and suspicion of all things wheeled? We seem to have more folks very much in favor of using their boots and God-given quads as the years pass, so maybe we can all encourage the rest to try it...

Is it legal and/or ethical to hunt sheds with one of those personal drones? Would it work? I'm told the helicopter fellas use that opportunity to scout for antlers.

LAST EDITED ON Dec-12-12 AT 08:49PM (MST)[p]8 elk antlers in just under 2 hours last Sunday. I had gone in looking for match to a midsize 7-point when I just kept finding all these other parts and pieces. Nothing big in there, but I reckon they likely had some buddies drop in the area...

Some sheds from the last couple of weeks. An atl to start off your viewing: The ATL up closer. I have 3 different singles that I'll be posting that I need to find the second side to - here's one of the singles: Nearby, I failed to find the match, but did find this: This next one I...

In case any of you might not be aware of it, we happen to be 29 inches of precip behind last year - 10 inches vs. 39 inches. Checking out the SNOTEL website, you can see that since 1981 (the start of their data), this is least amount of moisture on recent record. Yes, last year we had a record...

Is it just around here or are shed "locators" everywhere just riding to find sheds? I just keep seeing and hearing of atv riding groups gridding areas to clean out all the sheds. Seriously, all the people I have seen with atv's coming back with sheds appear to be relatively healthy people -...

LAST EDITED ON Apr-11-12 AT 11:30PM (MST)[p]Hey, is there a sunset law for huntin' sheds? Reckon not, cuz I found this gorgeous 27-pound set (yes, I weighed them) after the sun had dropped. I was just heading back down to the rig after finding one skinny, sort of long 5-point when I really did...

Yep, that would be a 59 inch beam right there. It was just right off the road - a distant road indeed that you have to know exists. I couldn't find the other side right away - I guess cuz it was just 40 yards up the road on the bank. Sometimes, we overthink looking for that match. (...I...

The ATL below: ...who needs glasses?

At least some of us like to think so. I give elk antlers to all of our Elk Students of the Month here in Ely at White Pine Middle School. The antlers have been stained and I carved the kids' names onto their antlers.

Is there a new law about picking up deadheads? True? If anyone has info on this it'd be appreciated. I looked on ndow and couldn't find anything about it - a google search yielded nothing as well. Thanks. Leif T.

Fresh ATV tracks - 15 yards away Moved a couple miles away from the first find cuz of the ATV tracks being everywhere and the fire I apparently didn't notice on the drive in - or it just flared up? The BLM plane and helicopter were on it pretty quickly anyway. Posed together...

LAST EDITED ON Jun-28-10 AT 02:11PM (MST)[p]LAST EDITED ON Jun-28-10 AT 02:09?PM (MST) The best 2-pointer ever! Off in the distance: Up close and personal. Yet, another solid antler that I failed to find the other side to this year. That makes 3 or 4 unfinished sets - ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

Find it? I don't do great on everyone's find the ATL online; in the woods though: close enough...

..and you will find: looked like just a big antler standing on end... ...closer... ...lo and behold... ...posed...

Hey there are some great sheds in the photo gallery! What would it take for those folks to get the sheds and especially their stories onto this part of the website? I thought it had been quiet on here, but that's not the case over in the gallery - why??????

Whomever gridded every tenth acre down south on their ATV and Fatcat missed something:

The ATL for the first one I found is below. Yep, the bull left it posed just like that! (only took 2+ hours to find the 2nd side - 90 yards away...)

Hey, I heard on our local news here in Ely that a Utah horn hunter lost track of himself and they did locate him the next morning. Any details out there?

...that an ATV is required for shed huntin' in these parts. Leif T. Now, that I've come to the realization maybe I won't complain so much.

Nope, didn't pack this out, but it did look inviting. A skinny 340 set: The match 50 yards up the ridge: Posed

LAST EDITED ON Aug-18-09 AT 10:15PM (MST)[p]http://www.monstermuleys.info/dcforum/User_files/4a8b758178e15d0e.jpg I missed... the creek runs under the roots of this tree...too dark...

LAST EDITED ON Aug-18-09 AT 09:37PM (MST)[p]Looked down the hill and I spotted this elk leaning up on the branches with just his bones- ATL: Closer. And a deer just a couple days back too:

Hey if anyone sees the shed below in an Ely area yard/home, it belongs to me. I finally found it after finding the other side of the set a couple of years ago. How to spot it -you can see how the base/pedicle is uniquely concave, main beam goes 50 inches, it has a little bump between the 1st...

Ever wonder who's watching you while you're looking for sheds? Or, how far do you let your little ones wander in the woods? Some of them do look cute though:
