Title: hancock snoqualmie for elk
Post by: Ryan308 on November 01, 2011, 06:52:28 PM: Is it worth trying? I have heard pros and cons but I live close by and with a permit its hard not to try.I got a 3pt blacktail 2 weeks ago and have not been up since to look around. Any advice besides C-Post. Thanks.

I didn't venture to the northeast corner, which is where I would expect to see more. I'm not totally convinced there are deer in there, as I saw a total of 7 on my hunts. There are for sure tons of bears though (bear crap everywhere), I'm just not sure how to hunt them in that overgrown brush choked jungle.
