[QUOTE="tellico4x4, post: 5641022, member: 2474"] Great advice for most of time. We were parked at a big campground which was start of a popular trailhead to the Flat Tops. There were actually 3 trails that started there and you could do a 20 mile loop if so desired. Our camp was 8 miles in and we had rented 3 horses for two of us. After several days we decided to spend 2-3 days riding & hunting the loop. Within a mile of making it back to trailhead, a bull bugled within 100 yards of us. Am sure he heard the horses walking & figured it was elk. Buddy & I looked at each other and said that had to be another hunter. After sitting there on horses fumbling around, he bugled again at about 50 yards. This time we bailed off horses and tried to set up but was too late. All we got to hear was him & others tearing out of there 😂. Walked in a few hundred hundred yards & the place was covered up in sign. Evidently all the hunters in the big campground were walking by every day trying to get away from hunters.... Don't overlook the obvious as sometimes they are hiding in plain sight. [/QUOTE]
