Our hunting season has begun!!
It is crazy already and the season has just begun!! I (Vicki) shot a beautiful bull elk on Sept. 8th, last Tuesday at the Cielo Vista Ranch in Colorado! Wow! He ended up scoring 358 6/8" 6x6!! We took pictures of him and then went into town to get Ralph an elk tag. He hunted Wednesday night and Thursday morning, he had a few encounters, but nothing to shoot at. Then we went back to the camp and I turned on my phone, there was a text message from Ralph's Mom, it just stated that we fly out to Whitehorse on Saturday, not Sunday like we were thinking!! Yikes!! Can you say 'throw EVERYTHING into the truck and drive like mad back to Illinois!!!
We arrived at home yesterday about 4:30pm!! We played with RJ the rest of the day and evening.
This morning Mom picked up RJ for the Boy Scouting Event that the Hoffman Estates, IL Cabela's was having today! We washed socks & undies, re-packed, made sure batteries were charged, cut up the Elk backstraps, loaded up the turck and left our house at 11am this morning for the airport!!
We are now sitting in the Vancouver, BC airport waiting for our 10:55pm flight to Whitehorse!! We get into Whitehiorse around 1am, then look for Don Lind from MacMillan River Adventures at the airport. If he couldn't make it, he told us to take the shuttle to the hotel and be ready to fly out tomorrow am for camp!!
As the saying goes..... 'Who needs sleep?' Hopefully we will have some great news to post when we get off of the Mac Millan River!!
Be safe and God Bless!!!

Now that is some scurrying around and fast traveling! Again, congrats on that beautiful animal at Cielo Vista. He was gorgeous. Backstrap heaven right there. 358 6/8" is a phenomenal set of headgear.
I hope you guys have a great and safe time at Macmillan River Outfitters. I was just checking out some info on the yesterday. I can't wait to see what you guys encounter. Tell Ralph he'd better bring a target so he can shoot something. I kid, I kid... have fun!

Hi,
Thank you so much guys. You are working so hard on securing this platform for us. We are hungry for more! Have a safe and good time. Take care.
Way to go Vicki. I love watching you and Ralph. You guys are halarious. There is nothing better than getting to do what you like to do with the love of your life.
My wife Kim hunts with me and now is starting to want to film my hunts. Wow! deer hunting and being with your soul mate. It doesn't get any better than that.
You guys be safe and have a great season.
Sincerely,
Steve Mowery
