Weather or no weather, I think the second season should be pretty good this year. It's definitely fall like conditions minus the moisture. The bucks are already getting puffed up and sparring pretty hard. I think the rut will be in full swing during second season this year.Been watching the weather, hoping to see some snow or rain in the forecast for that 2nd season, but nothing yet.
It’s going to be a real test this year, but I’m excited to get after it.
Does it ever rain anymore?!?!?
Gadjet, what do you predict for third season ? Since you live close to where I will be hunting third season this year the weather has to be pretty similar.Weather or no weather, I think the second season should be pretty good this year.

I predict that it's going to be great hunting during the third season. The rut should be going hard by then. Find the does and camp on them. But it's really nothing more than a guess. We've had a ridiculously dry year this year and I don't see much of a change in the forecast, other than cooler temps.Gadjet, what do you predict for third season ?

Are you hunting 33?
Hey 3CCC I am hunting 33 3rd season would you mind filling me in on what you see and how it went for you after your hunt ?Headed up to 33 for 2nd season for the first time this year with my boy's. My oldest son went and helped a buddy pack out last year and loved the area. We've been scouting a few times already and are excited for our hunt. The weather forecast doesn't look promising for any snow or rain but just being out there is what makes it fun.
I guess it depends on where you will be hunting. the White River National Forest has been under stage 1 fire restrictions since Oct 2, which allows wood burning stoves in wall tents with spark arrestors and a 5' chimney.Ya. I've been really watching and hoping for a cool down and some moisture. Utah muzzy elk hunt in 2 1/2 weeks and as it stands it will cool down some, but not much moisture. Hunt will be tough if dry and warm.
Really going to be bad as it stands. No camp fires or even wood burning stoves in wall tents. Could be some chilly nights. Hope that fire restriction lifts.
Tough hunting isn't so bad if the camping is enjoyable. Tough hunting, no camp fire to enjoy and cold nights could make for a long 10 days.
I'm hoping. I know tomorrow the 15th is when the fire restrictions were extended to. Hoping they ease them tomorrow to allow the wall tent stoves. ?I guess it depends on where you will be hunting. the White River National Forest has been under stage 1 fire restrictions since Oct 2, which allows wood burning stoves in wall tents with spark arrestors and a 5' chimney.
"Under Stage 1 fire restrictions, campfires and charcoal are only allowed in developed Forest Service campgrounds in the metal fire rings and grates provided.
Propane and other petroleum-fueled stoves and camping equipment are allowed throughout the Forest under Stage 1, as are sheep-herder and other wood-burning stoves often used in hunting tents provided they are fully enclosed metal stoves with a chimney at least five feet in length and have a spark arrestor with a screen opening of ¼ inch or less."

Cool! The weather channel must’ve gotten my email? Ha haLooks like a little rain, snow and cold on Sunday into Monday next week.
“Weak zonal flow will dominate the weather pattern through most of the work week as storm systems track east across the northernRockies. A stronger system will brush northern portions of the forecast area Thursday into Friday with an uptick in afternoon gusts and critical fire weather concerns expected onLooks like a little rain, snow and cold on Sunday into Monday next week.
This morning was probably the coldest I’ve while hunting!! Probably. Maybe. But it was cold!!!
Most of the snow even at 11500 feet is gone.
But there’s still two more days to hunt??Snow is about gone. It’s warming up. I called it quits today.

I’ll leave the big bucks for someone else.But there’s still two more days to hunt??
Yes, I saw plenty of deer and was in what I felt was a good spot. Resident deer and a few migrating after snow, but just nothing real big.Did you see much?
LOL, If I see that buck opening day of my hunt he wont be as lucky.Yes, I saw plenty of deer and was in what I felt was a good spot. Resident deer and a few migrating after snow, but just nothing real big.
Saw this buck on opening day, and he was the best.
I can’t complain for a reissued tag. Big bucks are few and far between, especially when not going into the hunt knowing where one lives and hoping for luck.
Why would you take a 160ish as a meat buck? Seems odd to consider that a meat buck.I think I figured mid160’s or so. He would’ve been a “meat” buck on Friday, but he wasn’t there when I passed by. I needed some deer meat, but we’ll just have to get the wife an elk.
Founder, you video said Colorado Buck. I thought this was Colorado Buck?Yes, I saw plenty of deer and was in what I felt was a good spot. Resident deer and a few migrating after snow, but just nothing real big.

He was a big body buck!Why would you take a 160ish as a meat buck? Seems odd to consider that a meat buck.
I don’t know...??? The video is of a buck and he was in Colorado...... Didn’t look like that dude though.
He was a big body buck!
