I've been elk hunting it for awhile but never really tried for deer. Do you think that there are many bucks there?
Elk in the Swakane/Entiat area??? Learned something new. I've done quite a bit of hiking up there but have never seen Elk. I see the entiat unit and slide ridge unit had 1 elk harvested a piece in 2007, none for 2009. Entiat had 1 in 2008. Swakane had 3 in 2008 and 2 2009.

I don't generally give away too much info about where I'm hunting/not hunting but, since I caused some confusion, I'll just say that I think that the Swakane would be a poor place to elk hunt. But it might be alright for deer. :P

So I wonder if those 3 people that said they shot an elk in 250 just screwed up and meant to put 251
Most likely not...there are "some" elk in the 250 unit....I know when I was really young, my family and some friends of our family would get into them now and then in the 250.....but tht was long ago when there was a late hunt......

Ok, laugh it up halflife, I grew up in the Leavenworth area, saw a big 5x5 bull up in Derby canyon during late archery back in the late 90's. Also cut some fresh bull tracks in the snow up on Entiat ridge near Sugarloaf lookout last year during modern deer. So yes, there are actually elk, just not many. Much better deer numbers once the snow pushes them out of the Icicle and Lake Wenatchee areas.
I actually have seen some pictures of some cows in the area - not saying that there are NO elk, just saying that it wouldn't be a good place to hunt elk. If someone thinks that they can catch up to that bull you saw in the late '90's they should go right ahead.
Interesting that elk would be out by Sugarloaf. Would be cool to see.

Congrats on the moose! Where did you get it? (I suppose I could just go find the thread - don't mean to hijack this one.)
