Yesterday I sighted in my hunting rifles and then took a ride up to my hunting area to see if the fires we have endured here in Wyoming have affected my area. I was pleasantly suprised that the forage is in musch better shape than I have seen it this time of year. I hiked back in to the water holes I usually sit on and they were all full, and had a LOT of sign showing deer, elk, and even some mountain lion and bear tracks. Looks like MAYBE the fires pushed some game in our direction. Looking forward to a GREAT season. I managed to get three weeks off for the hunt so I won't be worth shooting for the next 6 weeks.
