Found a couple of nice elk sheds during my third season deer hunt this year.
Found this nice 5 pt shed early one morning about a mile out and ended up carrying it with me for a few hours while my daughter and I worked our way back to our jump-off point.
Then about two days later shortly after daylight I was in the same general area by myself and was glassing a hill for deer when I glanced to my right and saw a bright white something sticking out of the brush about 20 yards away. After finishing my glassing, I walked over to it and found my biggest elk shed to date. Here's the ATL with it partially hidden in the sage and grass. The pics really don't show it very well but the mass on this thing is awesome. The base circumference is about 11 inches.
Since I was just starting my morning hunt and didn't want to pack this heavy thing around all morning, I tucked it under some brush and came back for it on my way out later in the day. Here's the sunny side up after the pack out.
And the brown side.
