'morning All,

I'm combining my mid-May and early June Wyoming trips into 1 thread this year.

I'm helping out 2 ~~ 26 Bull moose tag holders, 1 from my home state and another fellow from northwest Wyoming.

Plus a couple of fellow Non-Ressy's with Gen elk tags.

I hit 29k miles on my 2020 JPGladiator on the mid May trip driving up.

Thanks for taking the time to view All.

This year 60+ lbs lost.

My buddy from Nevada, NvMike and his wife came along again this spring in mid-May.

He has been on that Roger Raglin diet for a year and lost 60 + pounds

I am really tempted to fly out to the Bighorns and scout Unit 37 for my fall elk archery hunt. Maybe do a little fishing while there. Just so much going on.

Look forward to these trips of yours. Hope that you don't find much winter kill this year. Nice that your seeing some young bulls. I am planning some scouting a little later this summer in Colorado. Best of luck to you, Badbull

A good year for Antler Growth.

For the June trip I drove up and over Monte Cristo/Woodruff/Cokeville as I hadn't taken that route for years.

From: BULELK1

13-Jun-22

Back in the day, I stayed here many nights. In Cokeville

The lil cutie pie cowgirl that ran the place told me the actual owner was from Pa. and his name was Joe.

As our Bowsite grew and we got many new members from around our USA, I started to wonder if Mule Power /Joe was the owner.

Thanks Robb......I am hoping to run some of the roads and jump out and hike around a bit up in Unit 11 to scout for my buddy's type 9 tag hunt this fall. I imagine still alot of snow on the forest service roads up in the Snowy Mtns. I am actually excited by the prospect of a night or two out in my hammock in the high country.

Here is the best I can do for those axing about ATV use.

I don't use mine for hunting, so I don't have any real knowledge about them in Wyoming.

See my link above.

Good luck, Robb
