Wetter in Washington (I mean western Washington)

Rain, rain and more rain! This has to be one of the wettest Decembers I have seen in many years. I spent four days up at Wynoochee lake out on the coast. I was looking for some blacktail deer. Hunting was really good, we saw ton's of deer (thirty on Tuesday alone). Four of them where bucks. I launched arrows at five of them and missed every single one! I learned my arrow rest on my bow had been bumped down by half an inch. The rain was really intense, so bad that on Wed. We walked in in the dark with head lamps and couldn't see the road in front of us. Looks like the weather isn't giving up any time soon, another soaker is heading in for tomorrow. Will it ever end? I'd better call my brother Noah to see if he wants to take a boat building class. The good news is the steelhead have started to show up in force now. I think if the rivers start to drop next week I'll go look for the first winter run. I can hear the coastal rivers calling my name now! (not now I'm typing dammit).................................

More elk. Roosevelt elk in fact!

I found there is a wrong way to sneak up on elk!

We found a herd of elk in a field down by the Wynoochee river/

Every stump around had this brilliant orange fungus growing on it.

Morning on the ridge across from camp. We got a light dusting of snow that night. This would prove to be the only time the sun was seen the whole trip.
