[QUOTE="Dr. Vette, post: 515907, member: 22335"] I tried to be nice in my previous post as many here seem to like Milligan Brand. Camp house was dirty - vacuum was broken and had been for a while. Nice old popcorn collection on the carpet all week long. :rolleyes: Bathrooms hadn't been cleaned in quite a while. Mice droppings all over our bedroom. Food was generally tasteless and overcooked. Leftovers usually sat out for hours until the next mealtime. Guides had no clue how to hunt elk that didn't walk down off the mountain and right in front of us. Once the elk go into the woods at first light your hunt is done until 4:00 pm when they'd set you out in hopes that something would wander out in the evening. By the end of the hunt the hunters were telling the guides how to hunt (several very, very experienced hunters in the group). Guides drank beer from morning to night including while driving and guiding. Ray, the owner, seems to be a nice enough guy but runs a very loose camp. He tells great stories but we didn't pay all the money just to hear stories. I'm sure if I asked Dad and the other guys I'd get more specifics but this is what I can think of in about 3 minutes.
