Scouted for elk near Mossyrock in my usual areas. Saw alot of sign, but it was all at least a week old at the minimum. Everything was DRY and very noisy. If it stays this dry, it is going to be tough to put a stalk on any bulls. Saw lots of bull and cow tracks, found a couple nice drinking holes and wallows, but normally when I scout here before muzzleloader season, I find at least some FRESH sign, but not today. Oh well, hopefully the colder weather at night along some rain will change my luck before next weekend. good luck to all you elk hunters. be safe and courteous. BMF
