Title: umptanum cow tag
Post by: ribka on October 02, 2008, 08:55:28 AM: Drew an Umptanum l cow tag. Have been scouting area on the weekends and found elk and left them alone. The past few days activity in the area(atv's etc.) has scared them out of area. Any general reccomendations to find elk in Umpatnum (unit 342)?
Thanks

I know where elk can generally be found but trying to get away from atv's and other hunters.I enjoy hunting for the experience as much as taking game. Trying to find area where can get away from the crowds and am more than willing to pack elk out of rough areas. Might be able to hook up the guy who offered help
