It's still a little early. I'd give it at least two more weeks.

I saw a pair of really big antlers a kid found this weekend by blackdiamond. Don't have a pic or permission, they are very fresh.

I've for a couple salt licks and cameras on some decent bulls. As of last week they were still packing. We'll see what this weekend looks like. I dont get real excited until about the 3rd week of March

I bumped 5 elk today at 100 yds and glassed them as they went over a bench in a clearcut. No antlers in that group but I couldn't confirm if any were bulls.
No bones today, but my dog had a great time.

Saw one posted on Facebook today that was a fresh find. Big one, but only the one side, so looks like it is starting.

Seen lots of bulls not packing. Just have to find the areas where bulls hang out in bachelor groups or alone. If they are hanging out with cows and on good forage there is still enough sexual stimulation to keep them on. So quit watching pasture elk. Hit the dark and deep, where most can not see wildlife because of the forest and you may find some good sheds!
