Our first clients of the year hit the mountainside before dawn on August 29th-and we have been going strong since!  The weather has been as close to perfect so far as one could expect for the high country here in Colorado.  Most of the mornings we wake to temps in the upper 30's and then watch the temperature rise to 65-70 during the day.  We've had some pretty good thunderstorms rip through on occasion, and currently are dealing with the first light snows of the season.  Most of our hunts have focused on elk top this point, we have taken several nice black bears too.  We are doing our best to update the photo gallery each week at our www.bullbasin.com website, you can check out the photos there each week to see what has been harvested.  The elk rut is hot and heavy right now-and should go off the charts this week as a good snowy cold snap typically sends the rut to a higher level.  Its great to see all of our returning clients with a splash of new guys mixed in.  So much of the enjoyment of our hunts involves all the stories and tales shared around the camp fires.  We have been fortunate to get some clients their first elk ever-and have had some clients shoot their personal best bulls.  It is truly a privilege to share the hunts with our guests.  Be to keep checking the site for photo and blog updates-
