Elk Hunting

 This year Garrett got his first Elk. He was able to shoot one opening day up at the water shed unit up past walla walla. He was very excited that he saw this big one opening day.

 The weather was cold, wet and snowy. He came home very sore from all the hiking, he said it was the hardest hunt he has ever done. He shot it Saturday afternoon about 4pm with his friend Dan. He took 4 others in the next day to pack out the meat, each one packed out 100 pounds on their backs. This elk is a 6/6 scoring 300 and weight was 1,000 pounds.

 The kids could not be happier for Dad, Morgan was crying when she found out that he was not going to mount it and put it in the house.

Way to Go!!!! Our freezer is now full of elk meat.
