Hello all! I tagged a Western WA 5x5 and want a little more elk action other than calling for the wife. :drool: I live in Olympia. If I was gonna cross the border to chase bulls but its gonna be a weekends mostly effort. Should I try Idaho Rocky Mtn elk (maybe clearwater area?) or North Western Oregon... way West of Portland. In terms of success using OTC tags and public land... weapon doesnt matter... the posibility of taking a deer or bear while chasing the elks is a plus worth hearing about. Ive compared prices and it looks to be similar?? What do you all think? :dunno: |

The only good elk areas in Oregon I know of are way South, around the Roseburg area. In the Powers and Tioga Unit. Their are or were (6 years ago) Big bulls in their! Use to live right between the 2 for about 14 years. Can't remember when their Elk seasons are. |

I don't know this to be fact but I was told that all the OTC license in ID have been sold this year. That really surprised me cuz you used to be able to buy them well into the riflle season, at least in the Panhandle that was the case. Best call them... there actually may be some left over permits. I know in the past some areas had leftover cow permits because they had more permits than applicants. Good luck. |

Yep, looks like Intruder is right, no elk tags left in Idaho. You can see for yourself at this link: http://fishandgame.idaho.gov/cms/licenses/quota/nrquota.cfm Your best be would be southwest Oregon, as Michelle said. But that's quite a long drive for just a weekend hunt. From Olympia it would probably be at least 6 hours. |
