Dedicated Scouting

This year Travis became a Dedicated Hunter in Utah. That means he can hunt for 3 years, 3 hunts per year. Those hunts are the bow, muzzle loader and rifle buck hunts. The bow hunt is a month long, muzzle loader 10 days, and rifle 1 week. There are 2 weeks break between each hunt. So if that isn't enough time in the hills, he of course had to start scouting well before the first hunt, which is the bow hunt in the middle of April. So out we went in June setting up his new favorite toy, trail cameras. Here are some of the shots he got with the cameras:

During our rides out to the hills, we came across a huge road block one day on our way back home. The tree had fallen over after we had passed this spot on the way up! It was raining the whole time but thankfully Travis was able to pull it out of the way with the winch on the Ranger. And then here are just a few shots we've taken up close.
