A friend and I are going to hunt GMU 74 this year for archery elk. We have not nailed down dates yet. Our plans are to use the motorcycle trail that runs from Upper Hermosa camp ground to the Lower Hermosa camp ground with our on/off road motorcycles. We are planning on using one of the camp grounds as a base camp, riding in on the bikes, and camping out for 2-4 days with backpacks. Then heading back to base camp as needed on the bikes to re-supply. Has anybody else used the same type of tactics? If so, what kind of experience did you have? Any input, or comments on the hunting pressure during archery season in that stretch, what kind of elk numbers to expect, and what creek drainages hold the most elk in that stretch would be appreciated. Also, what dates do you guys prefer to hunt during archery season. I understand that the week of the full moon is usually not that good for elk hunting. This is our first attempt at elk hunting, so any input would be appreicated!
Thanks,
