Elk etc

[M.T. Pockets]

I know a guy who was hunting in the Thorofare area in September, just SE of the Yellowstone park border. It's probably not far from where you're talking about here. He shot an elk and quartered it out, when they got back with pack animals a grizz walked off with one of the quarters. His partner lost two whole quarters when a grizz somehow tore them off the meat pole. I've seen this meat pole and it's a long ways off the ground. He said there weren't any drag marks, the bear was big enough to carry them off.

I'll try to attach a photo he took on the trail ride in.
