[QUOTE="4onaside, post: 295568, member: 2975"] We started opening day in 2003, the last time that I had a 76 tag, in Seven Parks. The only game that we saw were Moose. So, we went out the highway from Creede toward Lake City, and stopped at the last retail establishment for a cheeseburger. The proprietor said he was surprised that we had not seen any elk that morning and suggested that we hunt the afternoon up at Heart Lake(the best cheeseburger and advise that I ever got!). Heart Lake is just below the Continental Divide separating 66 and 76. Elk bugling, strong wind blowing,but otherwise a bluebird early Oct afternoon. We drove to where I hunted just like West Tennesse(other than it was 11,600 ft). Put the stalk on some bugling and killed a very pretty, out of the raghorn stage, 4 x 4(don't think that he was the bugler, but I know better than to pass on a legal bull on public ground when the opportunity affords itself). My two partners went back up on Fern Creek(a really easy hunt) and each killed a bull on Tuesday. So we obviously are 76 fans. Now have 4 points, and if I live long enough I will be an old man before I'm drawn again. I'm an old man already, but I mean a really old man! [/QUOTE]
