Eastern Wa scouting

[Collin]

Went scouting for elk this weekend over in the Naches area, didn't see any elk only deer. Its still real dry up there, I hope they get some rain before the opener. Temp was in the 80's. Any good news anywhere else in Eastern Wa? Deer or elk?

I was driving around on Blewitt pass and the Teanaway friday and it was hot and dry there to of course. no animals except the two grouse I brought home. Hopefully the weather will get cooler and wetter. nothing like shorts on the opener! haha

I was over there the prior weekend, and while the elk were pretty quiet, it was alot cooler too. Right at dark 3 bulls started howlin', so there's some around. What tag do you have?

 

[Collin]

Just a regular tag, for a spike.

Me and my hunting buddy draw again, branch antler tags for Goose Prairie A. We did some scouting last weekend towards Clover Springs and Mud Mountain, man was it hot in that Jeep. We then decided to take a short walk on the backside towards the rattlesnake, man what a sight. We saw 3 sets of elk with 2 having bulls at least 6x6's. They were bedded in that thick cool timber in those canyon draws. I'm hoping the smoke sticks don't stir them to much.

What do you mean drew again? How often do you draw that area it took my 6-7 yrs. Is that for modern firearm?
