Heavy steep timber and swampy bottom lands, so quads & knees are toast. Lots of does, grouse and chanterelles. Picked 5 gallons of freshies. Zero Elk and zero fresh sign. Bummer.

But, I got to do 3 days worth of those "armed nature hikes" Paker is always raving about. That was cool enough I guess. Got to see a big fat frog hop about and do his frog things. GO NATURE!
