What are your thoughts on taking a smaller bull than your expectations come last day?

I am exerting all my will power not to do that. Moose in ID is a once in a lifetime harvest. If I pull the trigger it’s over, and I never get another chance. If I go home empty handed I get to look forward to doing this again someday.

As my wife often reminds me... Don’t trade what you want most for what you want right now.

Day 6

Checked a new place and found this guy with 2 cows. Seems like there should be a big boy in there. Maybe soon.

Got about 3” of snow at camp. I think tomorrow I will try to cut a big track and run that beast down.

Tonight I came down off the mountain to meet my family who flew in to Idaho Falls for Fall Break. It’s nice to get a shower and sleep in a bed for a night. Back at it tomorrow.
