We just had the mildest winter that I have ever seen on the east side the elk stayed up high and didn't migrate like in the past, you still get fair bunch of welfare elk that show up at the feed stations mostly rag horns and cows, the majority of the big bulls are solitary critters that go there own way, I picked up 13 elk sheds this year in areas a long way from any feed station, sheds are spread far and wide this year.
