Elk Hunt in Arizona 1850s and the Giant Elk
In 1850s Arizona a traveler describes an elk hunt with old hunter John Gaston. They locate a giant bull near Placket Post and Picket Post, stalk within 100 yards, and after a misfire and a dramatic display by the elk, kill two large bulls. They haul back heads and gear to John’s ranch, and the narrator notes upcoming tales of Apache danger and Gaston’s famed exploits.
