1st elk season in CO

[elkhuntCO]

My buddy had cow tags for him and his son for the first elk rifle season in CO and we only had the weekend to hunt. It was in the mid to upper 60's at 8000ft and the elk were high and deep in the dark timber. We only saw a few elk in two days of hunting, but it sure beat being at work. Luckily CO allows the youth to hunt late season with the unfilled cow tag so we will go out later this year and find one for him to shoot. I have 3rd rifle season tags for myself and my two sons, it starts Nov 6-14, so we will see if they have moved down a bit and are a little easier to get to. We'll have to wait and see. I'll let you know how we do.
