Post by: Harstine Hunter on August 04, 2007, 10:27:04 AM: We've hunted the Rimrock area for the last 6 or 7 years and taken about 6 elk, mostly cows and a couple of spikes. Last year we had three cow tags and none of the guys with tags saw cows! We totally blanked! (Only 30 cows were taken out of 150 permits issued according to the '06 stats!) So, this year we are splitting up and a couple guys are hunting St. Helens. 4 of us put in for Cowiche, bull and cow. One guy drew a cow tag...no bull tags! @%#$&.

I haven't hunted Cowiche yet and plan to go scout pretty soon. Can anybody give me a few tips on where to start on that area? (Rifle season)

Thanks!

Last time I was there the road ended at a private gate. People there were not too friendly either. Got a decent rag horn 3 x 5.
Tasted just fine.
