Breakin in the Boots





I went out today with my son to go hiking, maybe find a fresh shed or two, and begin the break in process for my new Lowa Tibet boots, to prepare for my sheep hunt in Alaska this year. Tate was in the pack most of the time, and we put on about 4 miles in one of our old haunts. We saw a lot of fresh elk sign, and several fresh rubs, but the highlight was watching a bull we are familiar with. Mossback Guides Art and Joe Gonzales were able to film this bull and observe him throughout the summer and fall. A good friend of ours almost took him in the early hunt this past year, and I was excited to see him... He is one beautiful bull. Hopefully we can find his sheds soon.
