Started raining/snow this am at daybreak. Had
to walk over the pass in light snow. First snow
since Aug 31. These pics are from last afternoon.
Went over to basin 5 at 3pm and they were going
crazy with bugles. Most I have heard in many
years. Maybe 5000 in 4 hours until 7pm when
headed back to camp. Maybe 60 bulls were bugling
in the basin. Left my camera equipment under a
bush from the am photos and couldnt get to it
because of elk feeding right there. Finally
they moved and shot this fight. They are
fighting alot now. I knew these bulls would
fight from the first pic when they do that
sideways look. Will post more tomorrow.

Wow?.Incredible action pictures, makes a man wish he was there. Keep living the dream and sharing with the rest of us. Thanks for making the blood pump and days go by faster..
 
Wow, amazing pictures. I dont' know how you are able to get into the elk so thick every day, but I appreciate you photographs. This set of pictures blew me away, what you have captured could not be imagined if you were to tell the stoy. Great photos.
 
Holy S*&t. That is amazing! I can't believe that tank is air borne. I wish I could have seen that in person. Thanks again for all of the great pictures!
 
Great fight scene, That alot of power right there.

Had to take a second look there! That was awesome!! Wish I could have witnessed it myself. How exciting for you!!
 
If these are your last pictures, you went out with a bang, some of the best action shots. Awesome pics and thanks for keeping everyone on here entertained and dreaming of hunting 76. Hopefully I'll see you on the mountain in a few years when I draw.
 
LAST EDITED ON Sep-23-10 AT 12:28PM (MST)[p]Awesome pics! Its a shame they are the last we will ever see!! To bad some people ruined one of the best elk threads ever on MM!! I hope you had all the details before posting a story about someone.
 
I will certainly miss these posts. This was one of the finest journaling of elk country that I have found on the web.
 
All I can say is, incredible footage and just about unbelievable until you actually see these fights firsthand. Last weekend was amazing up in NW CO, but I was cringing when tines would get broken. Big bulls showing up the next day with half a tine missing.

Thanks Rocketman.
