Title: Elk in Ashford.
Post by: WAPITIHUNTER on December 28, 2008, 06:24:15 PM: Was out to Ashford this afternoon. There are some elk viewing opportunities there now. Lots of snow so they are down in the pastures and in some yards. Couple bulls too.

They are back now and will be at least into August. If you go out Meredian, start watching for elk once you pass 224th. You will be surprised how many you can spot early morning and late afternoon.
