We rented a house in Gardner, MT for a few days last month. On the morning of the last day, as I was packing the car, a 5-point bull elk sauntered down the street past our driveway. I guess stuff like this is common there. The day we arrived there was a large pile of grizzly scat in the driveway.

Here on the home front, archery season began on Sept. 1. I haven't seen a BT buck since the 3rd week of August.
