Archery Elk 2013 Live Hunt Photo Summary

  I spent just over a month chasing elk around this year. It was by far my best hunting season, I was in animals every single day. Although I did not harvest I had many chances, and a fantastic experience. All photos are shot by myself with a phone.

Hut Trip

This weekend I went off to have some relaxation at an old ski patrol hut that remains standing in one of Colorado's ghost ski areas. It was Angie's first experience camping away from the car, what a luxurious experience for her. The cabin has a wood-burning stove and is set up to comfortably accommodate about 7 people. We lucked out and had the place to ourselves. Here are the photos from our adventure.
