Jon's Elk

This last week we went hunting for Jon's Elk. It was a pretty fun trip other than it was about 90 degrees everyday. We thought that we were hunting in July instead of October. Usually its snowing by now. Anyways while Jon was off hunting Landon had tons of fun playing in the dirt with his cousins and seeing what the outdoors offer. It absolutely loved it! He wanted to be outside every minute he possible could.

Jon was really excited this year to go on his hunt. After a couple of months preparing for the hunt it was finally here. It was a really hard hunt this year being that the weather was so hot. The elk don't like the hot weather so they were seeking cooler temperatures high up in the mountains. Which was not ideal being that these mountains were steep rocky mountains. You would have to be a rock climber to attempt to climb these mountains. Finally one night it cooled off a bit and the elk started down the mountain to some hay fields. That next morning is when Jon got his first elk.
