UPDATE 9 NOVEMBER 2018
Hunting season is still in full swing here in Montana. There has been some success on our place. So far there have been 5 elk and 2 deer taken. In the Willow Creek area where we live, there is a herd of approximately 100 head. Some folks are saying it is over a 100 but no accurate count has taken place that I know of. They have come through our place a number of times. That number is just to high for our area. And there are lots of whitetail deer also. So the fences and pasture lands are taking a hit.
We have been cutting down a few trees for wood also. Lots of dead trees standing that make good wood for the heating stoves.
A few pictures of the elk and the ones that hunters have got. Each hunter can get a bull and a cow if they have the proper tags. The fish and game folks are trying to reduce the herd which is good.
