Worst chicken fried steak I ever had and had a guy tell me the only reason he didn’t beat me up was because he didn’t want to go back to prison

It’s a completely different experience now, food is good and I don’t even see a chicken fried steak on the current menu

Find any elk?

 

[Hilljackoutlaw]

Phone broke at beginning of this trip. So that's why there was no updates.

 

[Hilljackoutlaw]

We found elk. We loved what we saw pretty much everywhere. Found good camping spots. Where we actually go is gonna depend on where the other hunters are when we arrive. No griz sightings. Caught a shit ton of fish on dry flies in the mountain streams while hiking and scouting. Ran into some old friends from when I lived up there ate like kings and had a good time all around.
