Post by: Special T on July 24, 2013, 02:55:28 PM: I don't have any advise for MT... Is ist still $350 for an out of state tag? ID is only $35 for a tag and is likely to open up permission in places if you have it. If you are looking for target rich areas you could look up NWwolfsightings.org to give you an idea...

Just out of curiosity why MT? ID is cheaper and closer?

You wouldn't want to miss a shot if that's where you're going to hunt. The MT tags go on sale August 5th.

Idaho tags are right near $184. I forget the exact price I paid. Montana is $70 total. I called MT today to verify the cost. You can shoot up to 5 wolves in MT at $70 each time you need a new tag.

It's only because the residents have been pushing hard.

Talked to a father son duo hunting them one day he got one the previous year long shot in a snowy basin said it weighed 85 lbs.There tough to call in they don't expose them,selves. I would watch remote logging roads in the am, as they use them for their highway.
