Went muzzleloader hunting last weekend into the UINTHAS in Ut.Tell you beautiful warm (9000 + feet) weather,after pulling into my campspot,well i left my camper home and took the FJ and my Trailer with my 2000 magnum only!
just about 1/4 mile away riding my Mag ,pulling over and going for a walk i saw some elk antlers( lets say )on the ground,upon aproching there was a huge 6x6 still attached to those antlers ,he rose from the wallow snorting pissing and bellowing,stomping back and forth ...looked like i pissed him off ,he was to big to pass for an Buck so i backed away really slowly i did not want to end his life before he had some fun.Thats the second closest encounter with an Elk gets your soup stirred up pretty good,couple hours later i passed some wild turkeys with my polaris could have bagged half of them till they realized me and my mag are different animals,just to make a long story short i had a blast i saw a lot of does,smart coyotes who stopped short at the 200yard range my hunting bag was still empty comming home, If you ask me i could live out there if you bring me food and gas !!! lotsasteam
