Just found out I drew 231 Late rifle bull tag after 10 years !!! Super stoked. I know it's been a good area in the past for others and I'm studying maps already planning the hunt, but any tips on the area from those that know it or have even been there in the past would be appreciated. I'll be scouting every weekend starting around mid September until the hunt starts. Looking forward to getting some miles in (y)
 
I hunted up on the very tip-top of Mt. Wilson, concentrated on a couple of groups that had decent bulls- was not particularly interested in biggest I could find. Scouting in the early Fall did not pay off - lots of elk in Spring Valley during the rut (saw as many as 47 in a group w/6+ bulls) by my hunt time they had gone eslsewhere. Be cognizant of storms (esp. snow and cold). Full moon really messed with the period I chose to hunt. Hope you have a great hunt! (y)

Damn! That’s like getting a freebie hunt!
It's nice to get a freebie hunt every now and then. I totaled all my NV pts the other day and I'm sitting on 90 total pts for all species and in UT I have 134 pts! Most of the time I need max points to draw anything. I was finally able to burn my WY elk points last year, but it took max points!
