Title: Elk sheds....little help?
Post by: NWBREW on March 10, 2010, 07:31:30 PM
 OK, I'm going to throw this out there. I have never looked for elk sheds before but want to try. Another member has offered to let me tag along when they go out (thank you to that member) but we have not been able to hook up for a hike yet. I start a new job on wed. of next week and do not know if I will have the time to go after I start my new job. I would like to get out monday for a day hike. Can anyone point me in a direction? Any info would be greatly appreciated. You can PM me if you don't want the whole world to know. The only area I am familiar with on the east side is out of e-burg up towards Tamarak springs or buck meadows. Like I say I have never looked for elk sheds only whitetail sheds. I am not sure where to look but not afraid of putting some miles on my boots. Thanks if you can help.     BREW

the info i have for you is just simple south facing slopes greeen grass of possible scattered pines basicly open areas were they are this time of year good otics and dont be afraid to sit down and glass for an hour or so elk horns are big and stick out a little better than deer do look for major travel areas most of the time you wil find the other one sclose it is my expirence they usually can drop at the same time the other side of bigger bulls drop at the same time within fifty yards or so yo can pm me if you would like

happy hunting

still packing in central/eastern Oregon too.  We always wait until mid-April for elk at the earliest.  GREED isn't good for the elk...
