Proximity!

Was elk hunting in the WeimenucheWilderness area with my Hawkin and a buddy with a bow.

Hunkered up to a blowdown Ponderosa.Had set out some skunk cottonballs for scent mask,and had a poncho liner over me.Lets me move my hands,etc a bit under it.
A cow elk approached downwind from me to about 10 feet,calmly munching.

I did not have a cow tag.

I was vibrating!

She soon alerted,and left.Not long after,my bow hunting buddy emerged from the woods,to link back up with me.He was quiet,but she knew he was coming
