How much faith are you putting in those numbers from the Harvest Reports?  I seem to remember a thread on this forum a few months ago, I think it had a poll too, where it seemed like only a few accurately report units...such that it draws fewer internet scouters to 'secret spots'. 
I would agree with some of the posters that said ANY BULL.  If I was to ever hunt the east side, I would be making the trek for a bull vs a spike.

Sure you have to allow a margin for Idiots and "secretive" people, but IMO the numbers still show a decent cross section of what is harvested, the majority of hunters will be honest.

People who dont get into elk up there havent spent the time...One thing getting a shot off,but being in them is exciting and enough opprtunitys your bound to get a shot.  We are into elk on a daily basis during archery season from North of Spokane to the Canadien line in my favorite little spots Its all about the time and years hunting the areas thru trial and error.You would have a very difficult time to probably giving up if you came from outta the area and decided to go elk hunt this corner with no experience..its difficult!! It has taken me 20 years now to know what I know about the area ans my handfull of honey holes. One thing for sure is the last 10 years the elk herd has exploded!

Some info may be a little too much. I don't want to see the hunting population explode up there as well. It is hard enough as it is.  :twocents:

terrain isnt conducive to road hunting either for elk in these parts and add that to a rainy rifle season in a super thick area and most dont even leave the rig  :chuckle:
