I was there scouting Friday, I actually heard a bull bugle twice in the morning,  thought I was loosing my mind but he did it twice about twenty minutes apart.  It will be a good year for u guys with the tags, lots of 3ft high green grass, the lower foothills look awesome this time of year.
That was my nephew.  I told him to stop playing around :chuckle:

if people are seeing elk in the blues then I need to get my wife up there. the shrooms must be putting spores in the air & causing hallucinations. maybe she could catch a few, see a foot & be hooked. then it wont be so hard for her to understand why I go all the time, come home with nothing but a smile & stories of what could have been.   then again she might see a wolf & understand the tears.

Go there when deer are open and you will see a ton of elk.  Go during elk and deer galore

When I hunted down there the culprits were the Nez Pierce tribe from Idaho.

Drove through my old spots on the backs roads way to Lewiston yesterday.....cant remember a time that I have seen so many elk...especially big bulls in velvet. More Elk there then any other place in that state. If i didn't already have other plans I would hunt there for sure. Pass it on!

I think the best of the Blues has come and gone!! Its going to be a steady decline from here on out!!

Thats a tag that I can only dream about now!!

As per my previous postings I did an aerial survey about a month ago from Pasco to Salt Lake City and didn't see one elk in the Blues.
It is hard to follow one great vision in a world of darkness and of many changing shadows. Among these shadows men get lost.
