White Pass Area Wolves

[Elkrunner]

I know someone who saw a wolf up short and dirty in the summer of 2014 and talked to a guy up pine-grass who saw a radio collared wolf from his tree-stand on the opening day of late season 2013.

Did they say the collared was a grey female?  I know someone that mentioned seeing one with a Black male and several pups.  This person does tell the occasional "Fish tale", so I took it with a grain of salt.

In our camp, we have from anywhere form 20-25 cams out all summer and have never had one on cam. 

That's the guy

Was he wearing a Gilly Suit or something of that nature with fake leaves all over it?

Also, did he call them WOOFS??

I think he did call the woofs, but I don't recall a Gilly suit.

I recall the time.  I do know that that year in particular it seemed to be awfully quiet around there.  I guess its possible.

Question, if you still have coyotes in the area that is a good sign that wolves have not completely taken over the area right?

We were up in Pine-Grass during opening week of Archery Elk and we heard several packs working the area.  First one did sound like wolves but the second one was definitely coyotes and I ranged one at 110 yds.

I've never heard this.  Im curious what peoples thoughts are on it.

definitely not.  There are still plenty of coyotes in wolf areas.

Plenty of yotes living up there with the wolves in pinegrass.

xj..I'm trying to dig through some of my cam pics. I swear that one night pic was a wolf.  It was on pinegrass.  I'll post it if I can find it.  I'm no longer doubting the ted-rowes stories with these types of reports.

From my understanding wolves will reduce coyote populations at first but they recover quickly. There are plenty of coyotes where I hunt in Idaho that is occupied by wolves. My belief is that if you hear coyotes there are most likely no wolves in the general area.

[hogslayer]

There up there. I had one howling 100 yards from my tent this year.

[branches]

What area was your camp? I spend some time in that area.

[Buzz2401]

Three from my hunting party seen a group of wolves on Darland Mt.  about 4-5 years ago.

[Elkrunner]

Sounds like I may start looking at new areas to hunt.

Unfortunately I believe that wolf spotting is going to be the more common thing and less spotting of big game animals.
