There is a really cool plane wreck on the downhill side of the intake trail at ~2 mile.

Should have told your son to look the other way.  Usually elk on the face of Lookout, all Oregon though

Thanks for the note - we spent some time observing there (Friday afternoon), but did not see any out.

It's downhill of the intake trail a very short distance, if you walk in from Kendall Skyline rd it is before deadman peak.  approximate google Earth coordinates are: 46'03'53.53  117'55'44.20

Rumor is theres a dandy bull in the watershed... good luck boys. If my brother fills his peaches tag ill gladly help anyone pack an elk out of the watershed or help out with the hunt. Always wanted to go in there.

I bet yeah rugged area always wanted to go but never have GL on your guy's hunt.
Think it's been said but not going back through 6 pages but when is the permit good for?
"When my bow falls, so shall the world. When me heart ceases to pump blood to my body, it will all come crashing down. As a hunter, we are bound by duty, nay, bound by our very soul to this world. When a hunter dies we feel it, we sense it, and the world trembles with sorrow. When I die, so shall the world, from the shock of loosing such a great part of ones soul." Ezekiel, Okeanos Hunter

October 29th through November 6th, 40 tags Washington side 20 tags Oregon side. Rifle, muzzle loader and archery can apply.

Archery and muzzleload makes it a very tough hunt in my opinion. How many guys have pulled a big bull out of there with an archery tag?

I don't know why people say it's so hard to kill an elk with a muzzle loader or archery.  :bash: No offense it just you're not the first to say this in this thread. I've hunted elk for many years archery and have been successful I've even stocked wt deer with success, so to me being able to shoot out to 200 yds is great.

Did you just say you shoot archery out to 200 yards? I enjoy archery. My issue with this tag is a quality bull tag but youre pretty much out of the rut. And surrounded by guys with guns. With the muzzle loader laws and open sights the farthest id shoot at a bull is 130 yards.

I have a MLtag. After hunting elk and deer with archery, during and after the rut hunting with my ML that I have dialed in out to 200 yds is a great edge. I started hunting wt with a 30-30 open sites. I'm not going to sit around and glass find a bull and go after him, I plan on hunting.
