Lot people in that unit think you need to go step and deep. Lots of great bulls hanging low.
Got this bull in 18 out of there with the muzzleloader tag. Found most of the elk I saw and heard away from seirra land and the never ending logging operations and rifle toting natives. Weyerhaeuser came in clutch with zero other pressure and talkative elk. [ Curios if you had a walk in or drive permit?/quote]

[ Curios if you had a walk in or drive permit?/quote]I had the drive in permit for Weyerhaeuser. Sometimes you can sweet talk a permit out of Weyerhaeuser even though motorized permits are sold out. I had spent a few trips in the unit bear hunting but after drawing the tag I made 19 different trips in there looking for elk and running cams and just exploring the unit. Out of all of those trips I only saw elk in a clear cut twice, just cows. It’s a thick place to hunt but there is elk. Sounds obvious but when you find where the elk are up there, it’s very obvious. They definitely have pockets they hang in and they really make it obvious. So concentrate on fresh sign. Most spots I went that that a previous tag holder took me to were void of elk and sign but you could still see that the year prior they were hot spots.
