No, it's usually in there.  I put my son in for it every year.  Supposed to be a good hunt.

It has been in there for deer and elk, I put my nephew in for it. I just know what it says in the regs, and the general location. Thought that maybe someone had the permit before and had hunted it and could give a little more info on it. Thanks.

My nephew drew it a couple years ago.  Did alot of research. On a normal snow year, it is an amazing tag, advised repeatedly not to shoot the first big bull you see because the opportunities are high for a low to mid 300's bull.  UNFORTUNATELY, his tag was on a low snowpack year, saw some elk, mostly cows, one decent 5x5 but past on it waiting for the "migration bruisers".  They did 3 trips over hoping for the snow above. The snow didn't come until just after end of season   He was devastated, it was just one of those once every ten years dry years, big bummer.  The ranch is loaded with great mulies, they were everywhere! I have to add, landowner was fantastic to work with, great tag, go for it!
