Hope you do better then we did in the Selway. 7 1/2 hours in with 5 head for 6 days never saw an elk and the only sign was 2-3 days old. Great time with my dad but saw 3 wolves in the daytime and fresh dog sign everyday. A great place and should be loaded with elk but for wolves have destroyed a great place.

Hope your trip is bountiful.

Yup plenty of wolves ,everywhere.Less game.
Mostly about hunting and packing,with friends and working the stock.

sorry to hear the trip was a bust Bruce. The selway is a thing of the past anymore. Right now there are at least a dozen outfits for sale inside the selway because of them damn things :evil:

Have a good trip Roy. If you get the chance, snap a picture of your outfit.

Del Cameron has a picture of his son headed into camp with hay and supplys hanging on his wall. Very cool picture, can't remember how many mules but it was a bunch.

Roy, here is a pic I snapped the other day. I was down stream from you, and on the other side of the Frank. I hope your having a great fall. I'll probably be in your neck of the woods in a month or two.
