Didn't they make a new classification a few years ago, thought they call them cascade elk?

I think I heard the same thing awhile back but believe it was just people saying it but not officially

I swear we are seeing bulls that have crowns like Rosie elk but also elk that are for sure rocky.
Are hybrids in this area common?

Everything west of I5 Roosevelt
                 East of I5 cascade Roosevelt up to the pct, I’m sure there are some hybrids closer to the trail

Crowns are not rare at all on this side of the cascades,  I've seen a few, I killed a bull a few years back that looks 100% rosie from the west side of the cascades.

I meant that’s how there classified when they are scored for the record book. Lines don’t exist to elk, just hunters

That's true. Until your talking private property lines. Then they always seem to know where that line is. And they stand just on the other side from where you have access and tease you.
