Wishin' I was fishin',

Mr. Magler

If that's your camp location in the last photo I understand why our paths didn't cross. We usually camped down lower at the start of the meadows. Mostly our guys hunted the "golf course" which was up on the hillside behind our camp and all the way up in the basin heading over to Holden.

I shot 4 deer up there before the "bambi rules" ended. I got two spikes, a 2 point and a 5x6. After the 3 point or better rules I took a bow up, shot a doe in 1987 and that generally started the bow hunting up there. The next year our camp went 4 for 4 on the first day with two 3 points and two 4 points. Somewhere around then I started horn hunting and passed on the usual 2 1/2 year old deer. I did shoot another 5x6 in 1994.

The first 5x6 got packed out the equivalent of "field dressed". That was a terrible year and the one I learned the merits of boning deer out. If you ever heard of the guy who liked to take long shots up there, that was me.

We did get one Pope and Young mulie out of there in 1994. One of the youngsters took to bow hunting.

Killed lots of mice.

"Life is tough, it's tougher when you're stupid." -- John Wayne

On this last Summers trip to Montana my Dad and I hiked into Slough Creek in Yellowstone Park (5 miles in,5 miles out,
8100ft. Good fun!).

This is a view looking into the first meadow coming back from the second:

About 250 yards behind us were this pic was taken we encountered a Grizzly Sow and 2 cubs. A little unnerving, but it was more intertested in her cubs and eating Choke Cherries then chasing humans anyway.

In the Creek, we caught a ton of these:

Native Yellowstone Cuttthroat Trout. As majestic as the park makes them out to be, in reality these 16-18" Cutthroats are really dumb, they eat just about anything, and don't fight very hard at all. They make Westslope Cutties look like Tarpon in the fighting department

I figured this photo captures Yellowstone Park at it's finest:

Bull Elk Skull. It's spine was down stream a ways............
