Dad went looking for elk hunting spots this weekend. While he was gone, a huge wildfire started on Saturday across the river from Hagerman. By the time Dad returned on Sunday night, over 200,000 acres had burned. The fire even jumped the river to our side in two spots - yikes!
The fire is still burning in some spots, but we are safe now, everything is burnt near us. As of today (Tuesday) the fire has burned almost 300,000 acres of brush land.
Dad, Jeremy and Adam went out to survey the damage and look for Jeremy's trail cameras he set out for antelope. Miraculously, both Jeremy's cameras survived (Dad had already taken his elk scouting last Friday). However, not many antelope are left. Dad wanted to bring home a cow, but Jeremy said it was too heavy - silly Dad!
