this guy had both sides on this morning, this eve he was missing the other side, he wasn't far from where he was but couldn't glass it up. I think that cow elk is lost!

we found a few, so crazy how many deer are in there, was hoping to find matching side of that one

 

[ivorytip]

was watching this guy hoping he'd drop, not a monster but a nice 3x his fronts had a tiny fork that looked neat

 

[ivorytip]

elk were all over

16 inches of new snow is suppose to hit over next few days in hills above these guys, I'm sure a bunch more will move in.

Nice find. How much snow do you have up there? Hoping we get a good storm the beginning of the next week to add to the snow pack for spring runoff.

 

[ivorytip]

having an average year, been several years since we've had good snows, mountains are right at or above average. there's a good foot on ground where these buggers are, about 8 on ground in valley, several feet up higher, been melting then re snowing in valley.

So I was after pigs here in northern cali I knew I was going to see a bunch of deer but figured they'd be dropping horns by now so I left the camera at home.

Long story short no pigs but I saw some giant crossbreed mule/blacktail bucks. I know no pics but there was one group of bucks. One was a I'd guess 26 inches wide with a typical 4x4 frame with about half dozen eyeguards on each side with one dropping down by his eye that turned into a big ball, he was very impressive. Fully in velvet, followed by another velvet 22" 3x4 followed by a hornless buck. I have never seen stag bucks in a bachelor group before. Has anyone else?

Maybe its all the barbwire but I have seen 6 stag bucks this year where the only other stag I had seen was many years ago that i shot in the wilderness.

How common is it, to see stags?
