I finally checked the Wyoming draw results and now I have checked it twice. It still says successful for Area/Type 035-1.
Does anyone have advice or experience for this hunt. I will probably go with an outfitter to access the wilderness area. Does anyone have any outfitter recommendations?

My buddy, GUHunter, lives just west of there. We've driven through 45 a few times. There are elk to be had. The best advice I can give:Hunt harder than you thought you would. There are elk there, but they aren't going to be sitting on the interstate. There is a lot of private ground that gets elk wintering there later in the season. In the early summer-October, the elk are high.
Best of luck and send lots of pics! Get out there a couple times and find the animals during a hike or two this summer. There are lots of trails and a person can access most of it within a day or two hike. Sadly that wilderness area isn't deep like it is over near unit 60, the Thorofare.

Don't know anything about the area but congrats on drawing the tag. I am still building WY points for elk, deer and lope. Looking forward to seeing the pictures and hearing about your hunt. :tup:

Yeah, I checked mine twice and it still says unsuccessful. Not much public land available, outfitters needed for private and wilderness access. Good Luck
