Elk Creek Adventures 2024

Montana Wounded Warriors took two veterans, Chris Gardella and Clint Mainwaring, to Elk Creek Adventures in Grass Range, MT. Both of the vets had bull archery tags for area 411 and our goal was to locate and harvest a big bull. We stayed in a very nice cabin on the Klakken property which includes 3000 acres of private land with access to 2000 acres of BLM and state property. We saw lots of deer, turkey and coyotes, but the only elk we saw were spike bulls. Part of the reason for this was that even though we were there in the second week of October, the temperatures were extremely warm, over 80 degrees each afternoon. We hunted hard covering a lot of ground and had a great time in this beautiful area, but unfortunately, as so often happens during archery season, the hunters were unsuccessful. A big thanks to Shane Klakken for his kindness and hospitality. We hope to go back in the future.
