What unit would you go to?
What is the access like in that unit?
What rifle would you take with you?
Would you mount it and what type of mount?
He is looking at the Sawtooth Unit. He is doing a bit of resreach for this hunt, but I know some of you on here know bits of information also. Any information would be helpful. Thanks for everything. Of course if I go I will take lots of pictures for everyone on here. I am also talking to C_Money about making this trip with me.

would a 223 or 22-250 be enough punch to drop a wolf? Seeing the size of many of them I would prefer a heavy load, like my 30.06 :chuckle:22-250 yes. .223, well lets just say I dropped a yote (and I mean it dropped like a stone) one time at about 100 yds, it got up and spun around about three times and ran off. I never found it. 22-250 is my go to rifle for predators.

I've been looking into it as well. I have put a lot of time into searching for the best areas myself. This one is going to be kept to myself since I did all the work. None of my dipstick friends want to go. Can't find anybody to go with to share expenses. I bought a 257 Weatherby Magnum for them thar wolves.
I live just off of I-90, your more than welcome to stop by on your way over to ID for your wolf hunts and if you need company I'd be more than happy to tag along. I will be hunting over there most weekend for the rest of the year except the middle of Oct and then I'll be down in TX attending my son's graduation from Boot Camp. But I'll be over there nearly every weekend from now until March. ;)

Fred, ever need a pard, I live at the stateline @ 90. I pretty much make a trip to idaho every weekend myself. I have no issue sharing my wolf Intel as I plan on selling the pelt and donating the income to help the elk.

Awesome, anytime you want to go just shoot me a PM. I have a hound permit so in Dec I will be running lions as hard as I can, trying to get a good tom up a tree before the 31st. After that, Jan through March we should chase wolves as much as possible, so anytime you want to go. I'm hoping to have a ATV with tracks by 1 Dec so we should be able to get around reall well later on this winter. Get in on some wolves that have not been harrassed much!
