Got back about three today! How did you guys do? We found one near negrito out in the flats

Anybody with any last advice before we leave Thursday? Thanks

I agree with above average. Saw more small 6x elk in areas where they are usually just 5x5’s

Back when I was ten years old in 2000 ish and lived in az I put in for hunts and was unsuccessful in drawing. Now I am wanting to apply as a non resident for elk. Is there any chance I have a point from way back when or do I just start with 0 now. Just being hopeful they can recover it?
