Looking at doing an elk hunt in 2020 or 2021. There will be 3 or 4 us, we all have some elk hunting experience and success. And we all are good experienced hunters from PA. We are looking a Colorado, and Idaho. We have all hunted CO a few times, either trespass hunts abutting blm, or guided hunts. We are looking to go the DIY route this time, or possibly a drop camp (I know they arent terribly popular here). But after talking to some people with connections in CO, it sounds like the elk hunting hasnt been the greatest in a lot of areas.
I'm interested in Idaho, but honestly have no idea where to even begin with that. It looks like last year they removed some units from the general license sales? Other than that, are there any general areas that are better than others? Any suggestions on where to look, or how to start researching decwnt areas?
We are all realistic in our expectations and realize it may take a few trips until we kill an elk.
We are from PA so we are all used to dealing with crowds and other hunters at times. I have no fallacy about being alone without bother anywhere we go.
Any help wpuld be appreciated for sure.
