I think you would have better chances at the place you were at last year.

I agree with Piledup. They're in there. Just got to be patient. We saw elk almost everyday! I just had to give idaho a chance this year to explore new country...

You are seeing them figure out the best way to hunt that area and hope they are
There during season. Finding them is half the battle. The thick underbrush is the second half. If you know where they frequent you are ahead of the game. I am going to idaho this year just to
Try something new and with better terrain and opportunities. I will always check
My wa ne hotspot just to potentially do something most people can't.

You are right about that.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,and welcome to the site.

This year , I always get elk on it but that doesnt fill my tag and I am getting sick
Of crawling through brush. I got lucky and found them during the season one time and I figure if they are back I would rather find out when I have a tag. I keep hoping for a
Nice fire to clear the underbrush, but haven't been that lucky yet ; )

That NE region is way overdue for a big fire. It sure would improve that habitat, for both deer and elk.

If the enviro's would loosen up on their stranglehold of the National Forest, we could have a little more logging which has the same effect as a forest fire for making habitat. At the same time, some of the "cronicly out of work" folks would be able to get a job. :twocents:
