[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1376410, member: 498"] In just 72 hours from now I know exactly where I will be. I will be sitting up on a ridge about 6 miles from the pickup waiting for it to get day light. A whole week of pushing my fat old carcass up the hills. Riding the mountain bike miles every day to get to the far reaches away from the crowds searching for a bull elk. If you have never lived in elk country, this is where we separate the men from the boys. This is not sitting in a comfortable chair in a blind. There is nothing sheltered, heated or comfortable about this. This is are you tough enough to cover miles of terrible steep terrain that can be a tangled jungle. Are you tough enough to endure 35 degrees in a pouring rain with a 30 mph wind or snow that is a couple feet deep and be there from well before daylight until after dark everyday. That is the weather that will get thrown at you this time of year. But to those who do it, it is a passion. Even at the age of 65 I am like a little kid before Christmas. This will be my fifty first elk season. I can hardly stand to wait. [/QUOTE]
