Cody Area Elk

[otcWill]

Considering burning some points this year and wondering if anyone would be willing to discuss the area. Keeping my post vague, but I've got a specific unit that I've been researching for years now and hoping to touch base with someone with some experience in the area. I'd be happy to help someone out with whatever in exchange. Without listing all the states, suffice it to say that I have either hunted it or have a friend who has most anywhere (including the unit I've got my sights set on, but more info/experience couldn't hurt ).

PM is best. Thanks!

I have hunted 62 twice if you want some info PM me

How many points do you have ? with max points you have several fantastic options. with less than max it gets more complicated.

I've either elk hunted myself or helped one of my sons in units 51, 54, 56, and 62. I'm also planning to burn some points and hopefully draw an elk tag in the "Cody corner" this fall.
shot me a PM if any of those units are on your list. I'm no expert on any of those units but can share some general info.

I have spent a lot of time hunting elk in the Cody area. Happy to help

You looking to go guided or DIY? Might make a big difference.

Better like grizz if you hunt the Cody area! I'd be a little intimidated in that area with just a stick, string, arrow, and knife in my hands!

Wouldn't be very smart to go without a pistol on you

Thanks a bunch to all who've offered insight!

I love grizzlies and anything else that keeps the average hunter from being attracted to an area . I'll be prepared and have spent plenty of time around WY grizz as well as AK.

I don't have max points and am going DIY. I really appreciate the help I've gotten. For those who've offered their info, rest assured I"ll keep it to myself this year and in following years. Also, if I can help anyone with another hunt I'd gladly do so. Good group here on MM. Thank you

A very big pistol too. As they say in Alaska, save the last round for yourself if you shoot a bear with a pistol- you’ll need it !! Alaska bush pilot pearl of wisdom!

The other old Alaska advice......make sure to file the front sight of your pistol WAY down, so you don't chip your teeth when you stuff it in your mouth!

I thought the wolves ate all the elk in that general area

Just being a smart ass but seriously are the elk numbers good in the area even with the wolves?
