Saw this on the B&C site. Congrats to him.

Caption only states:

Word is this non-typical American elk was taken in Washington's Blue Mountains near Pomeroy.

Who cares?    That was a permit bull buddy   

I know what you mean generally but in this case it isn't something to worry about because that bull isn't OTC.

The hunter is from Pomeroy. The elk was killed in the Blue Mtns. Probably the Wenaha East or West. Perhaps the Tucannon. It is a draw only special permit, which guys wait years to draw. And for the record, I hunt deer in Pomeroy and Dayton. We see elk every year for years on opening weekend of modern deer season. The special permit holders, archery, muzzy, etc. push them out of the Blues into the foothills, They get pushed back to the Blues when the modern deer hunters have their season. Go down there Nov-March and you will see plenty of elk pushed out of the Blues in those units, because of snow. I go watch them every year.

Ya me and my bro inlaw were deer hunting that area a few years back,, just after the school fire lots of elk opening morning just get up passed the national forest boundary sign.
We had a huge 6x6 come within 100 yds of us while siting and watching and listening to them.
Come elk season nothing lol as it usually goes though.

  THERE ARE NOT ELK UP THERE atleast i have never seen one

Look at the big picture.  The blues are tiny in comparison to most fabled elk habitat.  If you stretched out all those wrinkles it would be pretty good sized and over run with all manner of human.  Nasty enough to raise great elk and keep most folks away with an agricultural fringe to feed them.  The hunters move them around a little but hidey holes are every where.  Not much food for most of the year up high, lots to eat mid range and low.  Guess where you can find most of the elk.  Hint: Columbia county crop damage from elk has topped the states pay out many times.  Elk do not mind walking a long ways for a good meal.

I have hunted Pomeroy for 10 years. Our area is mostly farm land and the snake river. I see Elk while deer hunting every year. Each year the Elk population is increasing. I saw a very nice bull this year, 350 class.
