Hey Instinct, I will be hunting Rimrock on thursday morning and then moving to the Nile Little Nachese area later that day. The reports I have gotten over the weekend were not good and the snow just started  No animals seen at all 

I have an area I will check out, if there is no fresh sign or elk in there then I am gone.

Our group hunts the Nile every year in the late season and we are in animals every year. Like others have said weather plays a large part in the area on were we hunt wether we are up high or down lower but we are always well off the roads.

The last few years it seems like the bucks have been rutting pretty good the first 5-6 days then dropping off so we switch and go after elk for the rest of the season.

Ya gasman I tooka drive up rimrock, not a lot of elk crossing when the first snow fell at the lower elevation. But I'm sure everything is primo now. I plan on goin up there for a couple hrs wed mornin when I get off work then hunt all day up there thurs. I kinda got a hunch for a couple areas.

I got an update, Naches has about 6 inches of snow. The hills should have quite a bit. It looks like it will be thawing, and refreezing, another rice crispy walk. It dose look like the weekend will bring more in, on the weather station.
Silver cherocar for me, good luck guys!

Just got back from rimrock area from some sledding. Apx 8 to 10in occasional snow, weather not melting snow. No crunch crunch. Looking amazing. Saw more tracks of travel across the roads so they are moving.

I can't wait.  Good luck to all that will be hunting in the morning.

[gasman]

Yeah, talked with another reliable source and he aslo metioned lots of movement on the hill tops over the weekend.

They are on the move, now its just catching them before they make it out of the open hunint units, to the closed units 

[Instinct]

The only closed ones is the bumping n bethal so I think we will be alright in the rimrock area
