C. E. SYKES OF ARDMORE WRITES A THRILLER .
ABOUT HIS BIG GAME HUNT IN WYOMINGHE
"HIT THE HIGH SPOTS" OUT THERE LAST FALL
(Following In the first Instullmont
of a thrvepurt thriller written by
C. V.. S.vkun. a well-known oil mun
of Ardmore. Mr. SykeB hud a hlg-
game hunt in Wyoming lust full. He

man' magazine. Outdoor Life pub-
linhi'd from Denver hla experience
In the hunt. Kditor.)
I1Y C. K. SYKKS.
Vor the prist wvorul yours It nan Iwen
my drsire to rolled u. Bpeclnn-n of ull
Ami-rlr-an wild Rami' or tiny other tlmt
wa not American bo fur lis tlmt is con-
rerned. After my disappointment last
year It has furnished me a Brent deal
of pleasure to eontemplate and figure us
to the plaee In which I would next
make my attempt. ! can hardly say thut
I was entirely disappointed last season
on Dr. floodwin and I both mourcd two
nice elk apiece. Our primary object
was to hunt sheep but we had a sheep-
less hunt .which no doubt has been the
fato of many a would bo sheep hunter.
Last season we were outfitted by K. S.
Dyke of Dubois. Wyoming with Andy
"Willis as head guide and Floyd Stal-
naker special guide for Dr. Goodwin.
In Justice to these boys I want to say
that we found them congenial men and
hard workers. Our failure to get sheep
was no fault of theirs. T hope some
day to be outfitted by Stalnaker for
another hunt ns he has n splendid out-
' fit Is entirely famallar with the coun-
try conscientious In every respect and
a dandy fellow.
After listening to the glowing stories
which the Doctor and I had to relate of
our trip last year It did not take much
persuasion to get two of my very good
friends. C. B. Ooddard and R. W. Coe
both of Ardmore. to agree to Join me
this season with the understanding
that I would order their guns and ouS
fit for them. This I readily agreed to
do since It gives a sportsman tia much
pleasure to select such articles ns it
does a woman to attend a bargain sale.
The next thing In order was to choose
a place to hunt and an outfitter to
guide us. I had planned to go to the
Casaiar district. British Columbia but
the latter part of May I sustained a
personal Injury which kept me in bed
for a little over thirty (lays. It looked
as though I would not be able to take
a trip of any kind accordingly the Cas-
slar trip was abandoned. In the mean-
time I had written Ned Frost of Cody
Wyoming asking If he could outfit my
party providing I was physically uble
to make the trip and was advised that
he would do so if we made reservation
before someone else did. Upon recepit
of his letter I wired him to reserve the
September hunt for ua.
It was ngreed that we should reach
the Frost and Richard ranch not later
than August 27. start out on the 28th
and be In the elk country by the open-
ing of the season. Coe and Goddard
wanted elk. though I was not particular
about anything but sheep. When the
time came to leave for Cody. Coe was in
Boulder Colo. with his family and God-
dard and I were In Manitou with our
families. It waa mutually agreed that
instead of reaching Cody by the 27th
we would arrange to gCt there a few
days in advance. Coe ran into Denver
and arranged for reservations for the
4 p. m. train over the Burlington on
the 23rd. We met In Denver that morn-
ing and spent the greater part of the
day collecting fishing tackle and attend-
ing to a few incidentals. When our
train waa called it found us waiting at
the gate and with the help of half a
dozen "bell-hops" we made a bee-line
for our train.
Everything went along smoothly. On
the afternoon of the 24th we arrived
in Cody safe and sound. We were met
at the train by Mr. Richard of the
Frost and Richard ranch with hla ma-
chine. Wo drove up town and had din-
ner and there met to our surprise and
delight Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Spragln-?
from our home town. They had Just
returned from the Park and as J. B.
had done a lot of fishing: he nat-
urally had to tell us about it. By the
way. it la entirely fitting to say that
J. B. as his friends call him is one of
the greatest sportsmen and fishermen
in the southwest.
Arriving at the ranch about 9 o'clock
that night we were ushered into the
spacious living room and here partook
of the genial hospitality so characteris-
tic of the Frost and Richard home.
Next morning we were all up early and
found a sumptuous breakfast awaiting
us after which we proceded to rig up
-vour fishing tackle and off we went for
the North Fork of the Shoshone River
which runs by the ranch about a mile
to the north. By noon all of us had a
fair catch and returned to the ranch
thoroly satisfied. As we were not to
start on our hunt until the morning of
the 2Sth we put In the remainder of
the time riding climbing the mountains
shooting fishing and taking things in
a happy -go lucky way at the same time
"tuning" ourselves to the ordeal which
waa ahead of us.
Confidence in His Guide.
We had not yet seen Ned as he had
leen out for the past twenty-five days
with Dr. Oasler of New York City on
a fishing trip. On the afternoon of the
25th he and his party returned to the
ranch. Naturally I had pictured Ned In
my mind and In turn he had probably
pictured his "dude." I am frank to ad-
mit that my imagination had not been
overdrawn for here before me stood a
man In whom I felt Implicit confidence
not only as a guide but as a man and
a friend; one whose heart was as big
as the great .outdoors with which he
was so familiar. '
After talking the situation over w
decided to hunt around the head of the
Greybull River for sheep and the Two
Ocean Pass country for elk. It was a
question of which we should hunt first.
As sheep are so uncertain and as the
boys were so anxious to get their elk
we agreed to try for the elk. first. On
the morning of the 27th we loaded our
outfit in a wagon and drove about
twenty-odd miles up the Cody road
leading to Yellowstone Park. We did
this in order to save the pack horses a
one day's pack. That night we camped
where Eagle Creek runs Into the North
Fork of the Shoshone River.
Our outfit consisted of eight saddle
horses seventeen pack horses. three
hunters three guides a cook and horse
wrangler. Ned was my guide Kenneth
"Ward was guide to Goddard Earl
Crouch was guide to Cote. Mrs. Crouch j
tfca cook and Dewey Parmenter the!
horse wrangler. That night the clouds
weia hanging low and wo decided It
might be best to put up the tents which
we found later was u good move us It
sprinkled rain newly all night. Soon
we were all In Hlumberlaml tho my
slumbers were soon disturbed. To my
surprise disgust and sorrow I found
myself lying on the hard ground with
a punctured sleeping hug. However
tlite wiih easily mended on the next
morning for I stopped a "Tin Henry"
and got some patches and glue. After
that experience I had no further trouble
from the source.
During the early morning hours the
clouds lifted and every one was up
early and arranging tho packs l'.y 10
o'clock we were on our way up the
Kagle Creek Trail. . That night we
camped In a beautiful meadow near the
head of Kagle Creek where the griizlng
was good. We had not been on the
trail long before wo found moose sign
which acted ua a stimulant to the
"dudes" (as nil hunters are called).
The group had not gone much further
until we rodo within u few yards of a
cow moose and calf which did not seem
at ull disturbed at our Intrusion. On
the morning of the "9th wo crossed tho
Absorlka Mountains at the head of
Kuplu Creek. l'.y this time wo were
within the Park boundary and after
crossing tho divide had pood traveling
the rest of the day. Wo reached
Krldgor Uiko that night In time to
catch a fine string of lake trout for
supper. At It was u short pack from
lirlilger Lake to Two Ocean I'ass whore
we intended to make a permanent camp
wo spent an hour or two fishing on tho
morning of the 30th during which time
we caught a dozen or more trout aver-
aging about sixteen Inches long. Here
we mot a game warden who took a
memorandum of our hunting license
and gave us quite a little data us to
game conditions etc. Wo reached Two
Oceun Pass about noon and spent the
rest of tho day making things com
fortublo loafing around and taking
things easy.
As the season did not own for elk
until September I w hud one day left
for resting whllu Ned and the two
guides traced out the lines of the game
preserve which were not more than a
mlUt from camp. Instead of louring
around camp we took a long hike up
tho mountains in order to get ourselves
In trim us much us possible for the days
to follow.
Anxious To (in To It.
On the morning of tho first we were
up early. It was very cool but we hud
a comfortable fire In our tent stove to
dross by and before the sun was up
wo had been summoned to "come and
get it." Wo were not long In doing so
as we were anxious to got to the hunt-
ing country. Ned and I decided to hunt
tho Buffalo Fork country while Coe
and his guide hunted toward Atlantic
Creek and Goddard tho White Rock
Orivk country. Nod and I put In a hard
day's hunting and returned to camp
that evening ahead of the other boys
with nothing to show as was the case
with both other parties. Neither of us
had us much as seen a cow. There
were Ihreo of four "licks" near the trail
leading from Two Oiviin Pass to the
