No such thing.........

Best thing is that it is "any elk" area. However...don't take my word for it...I'm no gamie. Read the regs carefully, know your boundries, and don't shoot any dinks or llamas.

I agree, C-post is the place to go.

They're still rutting hard up there at C-post.

You might see if you can join someone from the site on a hunt. Women seem to get a little preferential treatment for that.

Just wanted to bump this thread. I was up in C-Post this morning checking my cams. The bulls that use this for their home range are indeed still making all kinds of noise. I busted a small group, maybe 20 or so animals and saw one nice bull and a smaller one run off with the cows. If you are still working on filling a tag I'd get up there quick.

Where is c-post? I am looking in the regulations book and don't see it. 

Thanks for the info.

[h20hunter]

It's in there....keep looking.

you are close to the skookumchuck area, and also to Winston, Get out there and do some scouting, there is no C-post. If you are going to hunt, you have about 4 days to scout make it worth it......

[h20hunter]

Oh no, c-post does exist...pm sent regarding. Sounds like some good starting info from blkbearkl, good luck out there and be safe and shoot straight.

[tenderheart]

Ok no more with the C-Post...lol Winston looks like the place and I will go do some scouting...Thanks....

I would like to but not knowing anyone is a little scary. I will go to the womens site and see if I can join in there. Next year I will be a little more prepared and start finding hunting partners sooner..

We are going to be in the Winston Unit because my husband drew a cow tag.  But it would be nice to know someone first.
