Title: Primal Tech - headed for Colorado!!
Post by: Crittergetter on August 31, 2018, 10:52:02 PM
Hey guys, I'll be closing shop for an undetermined number of days ( about 2 weeks)  to go chase elk in Colorado!! I am going with 4 other Trad guys. A couple are Tradgangers and a couple are from another site. Expecting great times, burning lungs and legs, good food, beautiful scenery, and cozy campfires!! 
May even kill an elk if one decides to cooperate!  :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Hey guys, sorry. I've been extremely busy.
Yes Gary, part of the reason I came back was due to things pulling up, but mostly because muzzle loader season kicking in and I was covered up with the orange army every where I went. Figured it was time to head home.
Anyways, I didn't get a shot opportunity but and an awesome adventure with like minded Trad folks!! They only real chance I had at an elk was ruined by some cowboys rounding up their cattle. Talk about bad timing!!
Anyhow, here are some pics for y'alls enjoyment!
This one was on the way up the mountain! Lol

We had a neighbor that liked to use the facilities right behind our camp (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180914/24ba0eeb74b60822eb10c31d6320a59c.jpg)
And someone else liked to eat close to camp (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180914/2062134628934e5256c7d0b16f4f65d1.jpg)

The view from second camp (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180914/09abca6016155135e147a718690038bd.jpg)
Sat under this spruce during a thunderstorm. Stayed completely dry (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180914/a3389e5d1860d5e5f916e222306558fc.jpg) figured I'd just stay there the rest of the day. Saw a coyote at 15 yrds and 5 deer. (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180914/67f5202def878bf6d86d758ca076d66b.jpg)

Sat on a trail that ran along the top edge of some aspens with my buddy one day for a short break. I couldn't help myself! Lol (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180914/094d4b5f1411d008f10ab595dec123d4.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180914/e93fe5e49ee5cd9088cd5270080c8ca3.jpg)

Beautiful country. Thanks for the pics as they really help folk like me that haven't got to go for a couple years due to health issues. Go as often as you can, while you can! There will come a time you cannot.

And most of all, be thankful for the experience!!!!! :clapper:
