i did not think it was open untill the 1st of may

Its not. Im headed up Friday to get a feel for the area and start my hike on the first. Ive never been there and just wasn't sure what to expect.  Ive put over 30 miles in my area on the gps and no elk sheds yet. lots of elk but no sheds.  Was hoping to score a couple there.  Ive had a great year for deer but just cant seem to find those elk horns , any suggestions?

there are people that sneek in all the time and get them at night. i know on foot you will get beat out by guys on atvs hands down but gl i thought about going but probably not

[ridingfool]

ya i know guys that have been hiking in on the opening morning before its even really light and they passed guys headed out with frame packs full that they already had stashed  

[benhuntin]

Well I hope those guys smiled real pretty for the camera's.  They have been in place since the end of Feb. and Enforcement gets updated pictures daily.  Last I heard they were going to start a Wall Of Shame and post their pictures.  A little public embarrassment serves them right.  Every year more camera's are placed to catch these nimrods.

I say go give it a shot. You never know Those idiots that are sneaking in there at night have got to miss a few. I myself like to go a little more off the beaten path... but to each his own I guess. Good luck!

You will probably have to travel farther to find the sheds with the mild winter, the elk headed back sooner then usual.

Good Luck

Thanks for the info.  I hope a angry neighbor sees Those pics and confronts those guys.  maybe the worm winter will work to my benefit this year.  Thanks again
