TEX CREEK ELK ZONE... From what I understand it is a good unit to hunt. A couple years back they had a slaughter fest there though.. wiped out alot of elk. Winter came early in the mountains and drove the elk herds down to Tex Creek Zone. It was a general tag for cows and people cant keep there mouths shut and the whole state went over there and lit up the place. So, the herds got displaced and hit hard that year. They are in recovery time and the numbers have come back up. My recommendation is to get there early while joe shmoe is still at home in bed and get on them fast. The weekend will bring out the road hunters and they will sturr the pot pretty good. However, if the winter comes early.. the elk will be all over that place like the elk refuge in Jackson Hole. Good luck on you hunt. Hope you fill you tag. Oh, almost forgot.. watch the water... Depending on what kind of summer we have.. WATER IS KEY IN TEX CREEK..
