Thanks everyone for reviving this thread. I stopped looking at it months ago.

I sounds like these units are going to be a tough-go but I think we are heading in there either way. If you see someone breathing heavily with too much stuff in his pack, it might be me.

Its crowded but we got on a ton of elk there last year. That beatle kill will make a man out of you.

Cnelk is right but there is some more lively areas near the creeks.

. Footing is misleading in the lush areas, at least in the deadfall you can see where you are stepping.
Water is plenty and clean

My son and I were out there for 2nd Rifle Elk 2018, and yes, it was crowded. There was a bull moose splashing around nearby, but no one seemed to have a tag for it. Pretty much pumpkin patch up every valley.

I killed my first archery elk a few hundred yards above the runaway truck ramp on the west side of Rabbit Ears Pass many years ago. There are still elk to be had there if you are willing to hike.

Looking at heading out that way for first rifle. I have an either sex tag and deciding between Rabbit ears or farther north around trappers gulch.

@Shadysailor again totally off topic, I’m new to rokslide and don’t know how to PM you, or I can’t ? I will buy the Exo mountain 5500 pack if you still have it. I’m extremely interested. This is the only way I can reach out to you. Please let me know if it’s still available!
LOL! Yep, looks just like that! So bad, my dad was telling me to leave him on the mountain to die :).
