Wish we would have had a run in with the bull that made this rub! Pretty crazy how big this tree is and how deep that rub is. However, archery season for elk just didn't quite pan out this year. Bring on 2013!

Photo of the Day 35

Anyone else like camping on top of the world? When I get a chance I'll sit down and write up the full story about this hunt but here is just a little preview. On the 6th day of our trip we glassed a big herd of elk in a basin that had to be at least 4 miles away. Tyler thought there was a trail that was a bit shorter to get in over the top so we packed up our camp and hike all the way back to the truck. After heading in to town and having a super healthy meal of Wendy's, we found out that the trail we thought was shorter actually would have been close to 10 miles.
Then the punishment began. We ended up hiking 1800 vertical in just over an hour and twenty minutes just to find another valley between us and the elk. Exhausted, we set up camp for the night at 12,000 ft. The next morning we made a play on the herd and came about as close as you can without hauling meat out.
Anyway, the Big Agnes Copper Spur 4 worked awesome even in a rain storm that night. We also learned a valuable lesson. No Baconator if you plan to hike even a little.
