I have spent quite a bit of time in WMU 400 but actually havent killed anything there myself. Seen a few blackies I've considered stalking and lots of cow elk and tons of moose and mulies, but no tags in hand....

My Uncle's 2007 moose, I think.

Hunted 400 quite a few times, lots of challenges there, anything taken in that country is a trophy.

Not really "trophy", as some call it, but one of my all-time favorites - my first ever cow elk, which happened to have been collared.

F&W told me that she had been aged at about 7 1/2 years. She was a good sized cow. I've take a few bulls from the 400, as well, but she ranks right up there as one of my best. My 9 year old son was beside me when I shot it. My Dad and I worked this cow just perfectly. And my cousin was also there as a "strong back".

I shot this elk in WMU 400 in 2007.

Does that Bear have a tag in his right ear? If so what did it say?

Hunting Partners Blackie...Taken right before dark. Off the mountain and back to the truck at 11 night. Quite the hair raising experience. 6'5" Long.

SouthABFlyFisher · #14 02-22-2011, 03:29 PM

I bow-killed a tagged blackie in 402 in May 2008. I didn't even see the tag until I walked up on him, as it blended in quite well with his blonde fur. The tag had "S126" on one side, then "Do not eat" and a 1-800 number on the other. After some calling around and digging, I got some info on him. Turns out he was captured near Water Valley the previous summer after raiding bird feeders on a ranch, and was relocated to the southern edge of Kananaskis. He had travelled pretty far by the time I got him.

Here is my submission:

1 Whitetail buck, opening day at 7:20a.m

He is my first Whitetail buck EVER! I have had ample opportunity's at them, but just couldn't connect. He is my first ever mountain animal. He has super dark brown hershy chocolate antlers. I was up from the sept.17 for a week elk hunting, but wasn't successful. Never tried it before, but it was amazing.

Here is just 2 pictures I took at the base of Mount Dorathy on BC border. That whole walk was about 15km - there and back. It was up in North lost. Awesome country. Saw bull moose too, grunting TONS!. WICKED!

I think I might have trail cam pics of this bear around water valley I will have to try and find them and see if I can read the number on the ear tag what color was the tag

Islander · #19 02-26-2011, 05:23 PM

The tag was orange.
