Initial thoughts: Holy shit it's cold! Thank goodness Anthony and I brought our Heater Buddy. I'm wearing my thick camo clothes today!
Anthony and I woke up at 5 am and headed West. Anthony and I decided to hit up a canyon near our campsite first. Rather than take the trail, we decided to make our own trail. It was a good idea until Anthony slipped on a rock. He got up and continued walking. I noticed where he fell and was more careful in that particular area. Not even 2 minutes later I slip and fall. I hit my elbow and butt pretty hard. Pretty sure I got a big bruise on my butt. I also scratched my .224 Valkyrie, but no major damage was done to me or my rifle. I contemplated breaking up with Anthony while sitting on the ground... Haha just kidding. After both of us fell, we decided to stick to trails from then on. While hiking it got hot so we decided to head back to camp to shed some gear and layers and continue hiking. It was much cooler wearing my lighter jacket and made the hike much more enjoyable. After hiking a few hours and having no luck we came back to camp to eat breakfast. After eating we hopped into Ol Red (Anthony’s Truck) and we went road hunting. That was way easier for me especially since I was pretty sore from my fall. Anthony and I went in Ol Red and Chris, Miguel (Anthony’s cousin), and Brownie (Miguel’s dog) went in Chris’ side by side to see if we could find any Bucks. We saw was Doe all over. What baffled me was seeing so many Doe but no Bucks anywhere. After hunting all afternoon we came back to camp empty-handed. Martha and her daughter Stephanie said they saw a fork by the water hole near our campsite and Anthony and I decided to check it out. Just like earlier we only saw Doe. Chris had taken Martha and Stephanie on a ride on the side by side and when they came back they told Anthony, Miguel and me that they saw a lot of Doe and maybe we would be lucky. Chris took us on the side by side where he saw the Doe and we hiked for a few miles but saw nothing. Our total Doe count for today one was 25.
