For some reason I am going elk hunting on Saturday. Not sure why but I'll be out in the war zone.

Just got in and settled back home after the opener. Heading back out Tuesday or Wednesday hopefully. Didn't see anyone other than the drive in and out and got into elk both days. My cow tag looks very doable if I can get the time to get back.

Sunday ruined it for me and I'm done elk hunting the Colockum area.  People riding quads on closed roads, taking shots they have no business taking, and just disrespectful poor sportsmen in general.  It's no wonder hunters get such a bad name.

That's exactly what ruined it for me years ago. To much illegal and unethical crap goes on up there. Theres a lot of out of towners up there for me. No respect for anything or anyone.

Good luck on the cow tag. Every where up there is like a freshly swatted hornets nest.

Cows are a piece of cake to find.  I've not had any issues driving around and finding elk within a couple hours time whenever we've been up there.

That's what I hear... Looking to go out Thursday and friday before the weekend crazies come out again, if it's even worth it? Did you go in through the Malaga side in Colockum pass or Tarpiscan?

Yes, Malaga side.  Hard to say where everything scattered to after the weekend, but I have a pretty good hunch.  Good luck.

Same to you!

Weve been hunting in the naneum area for quite some years, always a s*** show of people, this year anytime a good burst of rain or any other weather came in some "hunters" down canyon from us were blasting off .223 and pistol rounds for the rest of the day like the start of WW3 was coming. just crazy to me, not to mention how many beer cans are all over the sides of the roads and even at the bases of trees where people were sitting a decent walk in on a trail. sucks to see our backyard treated that way by most likely out of towners.

This is the first year I've elk hunted in several years and am very thankful I did not have this experience. I wasn't around the roads much but I didn't hear any excessive (or any) shooting or find litter. Sad to hear this is happening in our forests.
