We killed no Moose. We never even saw a Bull while we were hunting. As surprising as it may seem I still had a good time. Most days we hiked 4 or 5 miles in the morning and then again in the evening. I can count on one hand the fresh tracks we came across in our 10 days of stumbling around in the mountains. Where things worked out for us was the group we were hunting with. We had 5 other hunters in camp all shooting Trad equipment so every day we had a lot of fun shooting are bows. Chunky came up with several different games for us to play and it was a blast. We had 2 doctors from Indiana, 2 fellows from Wyoming and 1 from Nevada. They were a pleasure to be around and took the poor hunting in stride. Between Chunky and myself we pretty much kept everyone laughing the entire trip. The Canadians now have a new appreciation for sarcasms. We did manage to whack a few grouse and I had one stalk on a small bear.
Buff, Sorry you and Chunky were not able to bring home any meat, but I know all to well about that. You do not have to always kill something to have a great hunt. I haven't killed anything in a long time. Bob

Whew, when I first read the title I thought y'all killed them all!!
It sounds like a great trip and I know if you and your Little Chunky were there, everyone was in stitches! Hate to hear that y'all got skunked, but I'm glad that y'all had a good time. I still have a hard time envisioning you and Chunky hiking 8-10 miles each day unless it was to a buffet.
Glad to have y'all back!!

The first day we all walked from camp to do some stump shooting. I spotted an oil can about 40 yards up the hill from us. I really bared down and released a perfect shot. The arrow arched up the hill and dead centered my target. My arrow exploded with the feathers and about 6" of shaft flying straight up in the air. I wish y'all could have seen the faces of the other hunters when my buddy fell on the ground laughing. they just stared at him as he was holding his side!!! Bahahahaha.... thats the funniest thing I ever saw...Bahahahahaha. They kinda knew from that point on we did take ourselves very serious. the oil can turned out to be the oil filter from a bull dozer
