Just finished 10 days in the mountains of Colorado scouting elk for friends. I was in my first flash flood with a 2 inch hard rain. The county road was underwater for a 1/2 mile at a time. I got to see one bear and about 300 elk, six ewes on a cliff. Lots of rain and lots of swollen streams. We will go back the end of the month for more scouting and hunting. Deer were scarce, btw.
