Was fortunate to be able to hunt outta state twice last year.

Here are some more pics from my October Trip

Weather went from Nice, Sunny and upper 60's to nasty in just a few days








Weather started turning colder and the sun gave way to clouds. The lighting in the mountains is something to behold

One guy took a decent 5x5

Much better Bulls were shot at lower elevations closer to the trailhead

Love the mountains until it snows.

Mid sept.- early October is perfect for me

Yes sir, 2 of the best months to be there, I also like April and May. Snow is not bad depending on how it's coming down, White out's suck bang

Great pics. Thanks for sharing. Would love to do a hunt like that someday. Unfortunately I wouldn't even know where to begin setting up a hunt like that.

Don't let it intimidate you.

Go with a group who has done it a few times and learn from them.

It takes a few days but then you will fall into the groove

I am opting not to go back this year. Maybe next year or the year after
