Yep, still in the high 70's in the mountains. If you get one you pretty much have to come home.

Aug 15th for cow elk and archery antelope.  I have three cow tags and was in the hills to cut fire wood.  Hot weather makes for no hunting.  Saw a really nice mule deer in the velvet.  Joe

Didn't draw for Black Hills Deer, West River Deer, or for Antelope.  All I got left now is muzzleloading deer, and since I drew the coveted "Any Buck" tag last year, I have zero preference points and will likely draw flies more likely than a tag. 

I am an unwilling future vegetarian.

I got 2 elk tags, deer "A" tag (either sex whitey or muley), Whitey doe tag, antelope A tag, and 1 more turkey tag, plus I can get wolf, lion and bear tags as well, and I can also hunt pheasants, sage grouse, Sharptail grouse, Hungarian partridge, several different kinds of ducks, Canadian geese, coots and doves. As well as small game and predators year round.
