Grandpa O's Elk Hunt

Grandpa Okerlund drew a big bull elk tag this year, which meant a weekend full of late nights and early mornings.  The opening day of the hunt was on Saturday, so late Friday night, the guys all showed up to the designated camping spot at Mt Terrel's Ranger Station.  They hunted really hard all day Saturday and all day Sunday and was never able to get close enough to either get a good shot or they never did get so see one. 


Trey stayed all weekend, Friday night to late Sunday.  Jeremy came back and forth because of chores and so it made it so McKenna could ride up with them and hunt on Sunday.  This weekend was such a good weekend for the kids to hang out with their cousins.

Grandpa O did fill his tag, but Justin and Marshall were the only ones that got to be there when the Elk went down.  Even though it would have been fun for all the kids to watch the elk go down, the memories they made just being together was worth it all!
