I must keep asking just in case...RIMROCK INFO

[backwoods_boy]

Ok so most of you are probably gettin tired of me posting topics about RIMROCK unit.
i promise it will all be over in about a month.
i would like to know what you saw where you saw it and what the weather was like in rimrock unit.
this weekend will be my third and final scouting trip to my GMU befor we head over on OCT 17th in search to fill
(3) any bull tags.   
any help you guys can offer would be amazing.  if you have already sent me info i really appriciate it.
thanks again and HAPPY HUNTING!

Hey I can see my camp spot and a couple of my hunt areas in that shot.Thanks. Turn around and go up aways. work to the south hunting the benches!

With the lower numbers of elk that we seen up in the high country on the west side.  I'd say you should have a good hunt.  I'm thinking the heavy snow pack sent a bunch more elk to the feeding stations this year.

Good luck

[backwoods_boy]

Well thats good news.
we will for sure be checking the feeding stations on our way over this weekend and when we head over on the 17th.
thanks guys!

OK. a very BIG moon ALL night long. 85 at 3pm.

2 Big Bulls in 3 days under 25 yards.  No bull tag.

I will tell you that all the bulls we heard and saw were quite high.

You have been there enough to know alot of the country. The weather has really changed so what we saw may not be the case anymore.

Go get 'em.

[backwoods_boy]

well that is good news.
may i ask you on a PM where the elk were when you saw them.
perhaps up by SandD ridge?

[NoBark]

SandD and Blue slide

[rasbo]

louie gap! look for steep escape areas ,that are hard to get to.the road hunters and trail walkers will keep em moving

They were pretty queit yesterday, but a big wind was blowing.

I've seen big bulls in all that country pictured.  If this is your first elk take teh first legal one you see.  I admire your perserverance, I think it should win an award on teh board.

[backwoods_boy]

ha well i dont know about an award but i will assure you that i am DOING my homework for these tags.
I will not be denied if i can help it and i feel that i owe that to all hunters to not waste thses tags.
.....it will be 5 below and snow 20 feet deep befor we come home empty handed.
anyways i cant wait to get over there....we are headed this weekend for our third and final scoutin triip, then to our DEER camp for 11-13 then we leave on the 17th.
So stoked.

Don't be an idiot and overscout.  I love seeing guys out carrying there guns and blowing the game out o ftheir hunt areas on the day and two days and three days before the season even starts.  THen the opener there is nothing.

x 2 just gotta have a little faith

[backwoods_boy]

yeah good point...
when we scout we are very quiet and dont go into areas we think might hold elk.
thanks

 pretty hard to control the number of people trashing your spot during the only week of east side modern deer season.  I have been told there is not much for deer hunting pressure  in the rimrock though???
