Get into marshy aspen and alder areas. Get over there a couple times if at all possible before season. It will make it much less frustrating if you already have areas mapped out. If you get stuck, ask for help.

Thanks guy's I will start in 101 and go from there.
Eastside of Sherman Pass at Trout Creek is a good spot to start. There are swamps just about all the way to the top of the pass.

There is a good area in 105 that never gets touched by moose hunters. The extreme north eastern part of 105. Message me if you want directions .
If you're talking about what I think you are, you need the permit from IEP ? Correct ?

Family is around $75 I think. I got a free disabled permit for all IEP this year, nice if I had a moose tag.

But I don't think they give you a key to get in.

They have never given me a key.......maybe I better check on that. ( this is for Mitchell Rd area ). I know the gal that runs Resource Mgmnt told me that there are no keyed gates near Mitchell rd. She also told me that it is patrolled and if you don't have paperwork stating you can be on IEP Land, they trespass you and charge you with it and take it to court. :dunno:

Dave -Many of the gates are open during a "normal" hunting season, for vehicle access. Some of the interior gates are closed and you can walk or bike beyond those. Even during our off season, when the gates are closed, you can go around them with an ATV/UTV 50" or less. We just need to have some rain so this closure for extreme fire danger passes.

Last year I was in part of your unit and they had the gates closed and some disgruntled person had ripped the sign off the cross rail and left a "Lumpy" in the center of the sign. I would make sure. The signage was pretty positive it was closed. Not sure how I could have gotten my Japanese Quarter horse around the blockage. This was during the "Normal "hunting season as well.
But I just might still have some secret's. The photo didn't come from the IEP properties either.

One of the guys at work has a daughter who is USFS and she is patrolling the closed areas and they are writing tickets for Non-compliance!!
It also sounds like they are busy enforcing the closure. He said she had a person who just didn't get it and after the verbal bashing she took she did point out the error of his ideas. He had numerous pieces of paper to carry with him.
Just a heads up to the contestant's in the area.
Could be a busy area with Charcoal burners hunting elk as well.

A Razor with 4 guys riding and pack frames in it followed by a Ranger with 2 others in it. They seemed way to intense to want to talk.
But running the roads like a Yo Yo.

I do believe today I saw what could have been a Moose Safari.

I hope I never have to take hunting that serious!!! I was just out reconning for deer season. Hunting buddy had just tipped over a road cheeken. Maybe they were upset we were hunting in the area?

No takers with a OIL ?
Had a Ginormous Cow in a cut this morning she just moseyed around until it started getting sunshine on her.
She was almost gray on her coat.

I know that whatever moose is taken is a trophy but I've seen plenty of little bulls taken in the 101 and I think it's usually the first one seen. There is a nice herd with plenty of big bulls in the area. I hope that he posts up a good bull :tup:
Post by: Ridgeratt on November 12, 2015, 05:46:41 PM
Calm down everyone...this guy posts twice a year :chuckle: Hope there is a big dead moose that he's got somewhere.

Not sure anyone is under stress or duress was just curious if he had found a Moose. With 10 tags you would think that you might run across a moose hunter now and then since almost a 1/3 of the area is closed.
