Success

It was an exciting weekend for us, especially Mark. He was finally able to fill his elk tag after several years of blood, sweat, and toil. It was a one shot kill of a decent sized bull. So here's the story....they had gotten up early and been out hiking around looking for some good tracks to follow without much luck when they decided to go back to camp and rest for a bit. They had come across a guy who was clearing a horsetrail with a chainsaw right behind their camp. Frustrated that he would probably scare every living thing out of the area they were considering moving camp. Mark got out of the tent to call me to have me check the weather when he sees 3 bulls running through camp! He dropped his phone in the grass and ran for his gun, yelling for his hunting partner to get up. And the rest is history. But wait, there's more! When he dropped his phone it was going to my voicemail because I was outside and didn't answer and it recorded everything! It's hilarious! And what are the odds of that. Now we have a permanent record of the audio from when Mark shot his first elk, pretty cool.
