Sauk Unit Youth Elk Tips

[Practical Approach]

My son drew the Sauk youth elk unit this year.  I am somewhat familiar with the mix of private and public land along the Skagit River, which is where I believe most of the elk in that unit reside.  Anyone hunt this area or have tips for a youth hunter.  I welcome any advice you can offer.

  Start sooner than later.  Sounds like you're on the right track as that's where they are most heavily concentrated and/or most frequently seen. Shoot me a PM when you're in the area and we.can talk more.

I agree the sooner the better, private access is key although there is some forest service land up there.

There is some public land access but gaining access to hunt private property is a huge advantage. I would get started knocking on doors ASAP. I sent you a message.
