Elk hunt dream proves possible for Iowans in Idaho forest
Ron Aschbrenner and his brother Milan, both amateur outdoorsmen from Cedar Rapids and Moneta, Va., hunted elk in Idaho's Clearwater National Forest near Lewiston. They secured general elk permits and non-resident licenses, planned with Idaho officials, and trained physically and mentally for a four-hour drive from Moscow. The trip, lasting early October, reflected long-held dreams and careful preparation rather than outfitted guidance.
