There letting traffic around the Nile loop as well I heard they have 410 open but its a delay ridden route carved in dirt. Im sure about Nile loop, not 100% on the 410...and if Im wrong, there is someone eager to let me know I bet. ;)

Look for the "Barbie Jeep" and say :hello:

I know they were laying black top on the Nile Loop Rd during modern elk season. They should be finished with the black top by now, they were working fast.

Its my favorite hunt of the year and I'm at home going through withdraws. I guess that's what I get for using my deer tag on Sept 1st. Good luck to all the guy :'(s out hunting
