more pics from Deer(less) Hunt

We went out on Saturday to try our luck again, but of course we only saw does. This doe and her babies came right out across the meadow, and didn't even mind that we were there. We came across this bull moose as we were heading out of the area we were hunting on Saturday. He is a really big boy.

This young bull moose we came acrossed as we were heading up to the meadow on Thursday. He didn't even care that we stopped and took pictures.

We didn't get our deers this year, but we are not giving up hope. We had to leave the mountains early on Saturday because this mean storm started rolling in and the deer all went to bed down during the storm. About half an hour after we left it started to snow.

Deer (less) hunt so far

Well so far we have not gotten a deer yet, which totally sucks. Especially when we see does and get excited. This doe was standing on top of the hill and we were hoping it to be a buck.







This doe and the one in the next picture were standing in the grove of aspens, right off the road. We were once again hoping for a buck, but then they lifted their heads and we knew we couldn't shoot it. I am really thinking at this point in time that I should have tried to get a doe tag.











Look how big she is







just a picture of another grove of aspen trees, but I thought it was really pretty





Here's Deon on the side of the mountain watching a grove of aspens across the way that we saw a doe and her fawn (last years baby) run into. We were really hoping at this point, but the only other animal that came out of this grove we are watching was a range cow.









Thought that I would finally let Deon take a picture of me.

Already

It's starting to seem to me that this fall and winter season are going to be rough. In the last 3 weeks, I have I had the same head cold twice, and feel like my head is being squeezed between two vice grips. I just hope that things get better soon because we are headed out on the deer hunt on the 16th of this month, and it would suck to be ready to pull the trigger and sneeze, and scare the deer away or worse yet, shoot myself in the foot. We have been having such weird weather already here in Utah, and I really hope that we don't get snowed in while on the deer hunt. It wouldn't be too bad, but I don't like snow or being cold.
So wish us luck that we both or one of us get our deer, and that we don't get too bad of weather, and Pray that I don't sneeze and shoot myself in the foot. Oh the thoughts that run through my head when I don't feel well.
Love and miss my family lots!!!!
