Congrats! What weapon is it for? Friend of mine drew the rifle quality permit for that unit and I’m lucky enough to be on the “team”. I’m just as excited as if it was my own tag except a little less pressure  :P

Might want to see if they fixed South fork Tiatin  (sp?). It’s been closed for a while. Opens up a lot of good hunting ground if it’s open.

It's the archery tag. Iv hunted the unit before so I know some of the ground. Getting stoked up for a great hunt. And yes gasman bulls like that :tup:

Should be a good season!  :tup:  I would try and get it done before the cow hunters come in. With it being the first year of having cows limited to the last few days it should ease the pressure on bulls!
Here’s my 2015 bull. You can pm me if you’de like

Think step and deep for bigger mature heard bulls. Get away from the roads and into the wilderness for some real nice bulls.Congrats on your tag !

Don't forget your parking permit , your Stubb's to the Christian rock show and earplugs so you can sleep , while the juiced up Jeep club gets there dirt slinging on ,,,,, allllll knight , but good luck , I have hunted that area for litterally centuries , and have had the hunt of a lifetime there good luck , and don't wait for the sun to come up , get to the honey holes before , I did all my bow hunting in rimrock and it's a very active area early in the season after that it's just good for the flash danceing garb dressed dirt bikers , stick around long enough you too can be astounded how nice they sound and look !

Yeah, 4x4 trails that offer better access to areas most other dont go....

The 4x4ers go through the area, they are not stopping, you may get a few hunting but they are very few......

If you're hunting by the 4x4 trails you are not up on the ridge high enough, trust me.

I drew a rifle any bull tag this year and don’t know the quality of this area very well. I was wondering if I should be happy with the first bull elk I see or if I should hold out for a big one. Any suggestions?

Hiker hunter, I was lucky enough to get drawn twice for Rimrock for any bull, and I took two big bulls. E- mail me and I can tell you how I did it.

This Bull scored 364 2/8

hi everyone I drew the rimrock quality archery hunt this year as well. keeping a eye on the fire near whitepass with that and the 1000 rd back shutdown at the gate due to road repairs access will be limited
Title: Re: Rimrock
Post by: Mudman on August 01, 2018, 08:29:21 PM
I want hunt Rimrock someday.  I should buy a app someday and get a point or 2 I guess.  Get a quad and go as deep as you can.  Hike up, spike camp it and climb.  That's my game plan I will never use!  Sweet bulls guys!  Love that area.
Title: Re: Rimrock
Post by: elkrack on August 02, 2018, 08:59:58 AM
Your hunt is in the hands of the fire now! Unfortunately the area the fire is in has lots of fuel. Hopefully it can be contained
Title: Re: Rimrock
Post by: archer86 on August 02, 2018, 04:26:24 PM
yeah it's not a good situation for anyone hopefully they can get it contained before it gets to bad and from the sounds of it the 1000 rd will be closed into the middle of spetember so its looking like a bad year for the rimrock archery bull tag holders hopefully the wdfw will give us the option to get points back if it gets to bad in there
