« on: November 06, 2008, 10:38:28 AM »
WHERE THE HECK ARE THEY??? MY FATHER AND 3 OTHERS I KNOW HAVE COW TAGS AND HAVE NOT SEEN AN ELK ALL WEEK.. 4 COW TAGS ZERO ELK ON THURSDAY 11/6/08 WHATS THE DEAL... I WAS UP THERE WITH THEM FIRST 2 DAYS AND HEARD 2 SHOTS WE PUT ON THE MILES AND ZERO SIGN ALSO .... THEY USUALLY PULL ELK OUT OF THERE EVERY YEAR NO PROBLEM.. THEY ARE HUNTING OLD MAN PASS AREA... ANY INFO WOULD BE GREAT!!!!!!!
A hunt based only on trophies taken falls far short of what the ultimate goal should be, time to commune with your inner soul as you share the outdoors with the birds, the animals, and fish that live there”.- Fred bear

You guys need to move. You havent talked with the biologist????

Old Man pass had a real bad winter kill and the bow season up there was extremely slow.

Siouxon is a great big unit. Head for the lower elevation areas that didnt get buried in snow last winter. Or atleast move down more toward Stabler, or over toward Four corners (Carson Guler). You might also try the areas at the top of the Washougal unit.

I dont have a line on any specific good area, they dont let muzzlestuffers hunt Siouxon so I dont spend alot of time there, but from what I've seen and the reports from the bow guys I know, Old Man pass is a bust this year. Nothing but piles of bones from winter kills.

i agree with chesapeake. but you have a bigger problem, the cow hunts have sucked ever since they decided to lump them in with the general rifle season. when they ran with late buck the cow tag holders were more successful, you can thank the game-dept for that. :twocents:
