No Buck...Great Camping Trip

[dancermatt]

My plans to do a 5 day back backing Rifle Hunt, 1st season, didn't go as planned. We had planned on going up the east side of the Rubies to the Liberty Lake area and hunt southerly from there but it didn't work out for us. Instead we stayed over at the East Humbolts, found a great spot to camp in some aspens. Weather was great for camping...we saw plenty of; other hunters, does...coyotes..but no bucks. I did learn more about what not to do.
I'm learning a little more and more about this area and in time, I'm sure I'll be more successful spotting some bucks but I had the best time and camping trip with my son. I want to thank many of you for your help. I wish I had some better stories and pictures but maybe next year. Thanks, Matt

My Dad and I had the same experience in the Est Humboldts in '10 on the ML hunt. Lots of coyotes chasing does but no bucks. Next time.....
