Spike hunt

[landshark]

OK guys, this is my first year to hunt spike only. What can I expect once I get out to the mountains with regard to numbers and competition with other hunters? I plan on sticking to the Wasatch area, maybe a venture south to Skyline hwy if nothing going well. I plan on hunting opening day - gotta enjoy a circus at least once per year, and then have 4 solid days beginning on Wed (10/10). I basically have 3 areas I am going to concentrate on, but if anyone has any better info from the LE hunt I am willing to listen.

Lots of people. The spike elk hunt is just like the old general deer hunt. It's a fun camping trip.

I went on a late elk hunt in november and saw over 700 head of elk in 11 days. Only 4 were spikes. Nd this was on a spike only unit. Good luck.
