As a family we took a trip with Donovan up to his hunting grounds. It was a lot of fun and we actually found and tracked some elk. The herd was huge, about 150 head. However there were other hunters around that split the group up. There were only a little over 50 head when we got a closer look. There were 3 that Donovan could have shot, however, they were on private property, or so we thought. Come to find out later the land they were on wasn't private. So we watched the heard and tracked them...the later we got the harder it was to figure out where they were headed. Little did we know that the other hunters had found them and where running the heard higher and higher up the mountain. It wasn't until we talked to some other hunters when we found out that we weren't going to get any of the elk today.
The nice thing about us going up when we did, we were able to tell Don Sr. right where to look. Sure enough, they went up on Tuesday and Don Sr. and Brent were able to get their elk right after they got up the mountain.
