How has the archery season treated some of you guys let's hear some stories from the hunt and photos. I have 2 weeks until I hear out late rifle. Can't wait seems like a good moisture year.

I would be interested in getting info on packers for hireIt is a tough hunt. There were a lot of hunters. I talked to several of them. One said he has had the tag three times. The first two times he saw one other hunter total. This time he could not get away from hunters. I have a friend out there now in one of the northern units, same story, hunters everywhere. I have heard they increased tag numbers but not sure in what seasons. There are a ton of elk in there. If I was rifle hunting I would be hiking very early and getting up high to an escape route or saddle. If there are as many rifle hunters as there were archery hunters it’s going to be a zoo.
There are several people in the area that have horses for hire. Might want to look into it.
Let me know if have any specific questions.

After seeing this thread progress, i predict the wilderness area will be overrun.........It is a tough hunt. There were a lot of hunters. I talked to several of them.

Yes still buglingscouted all day today saw nothing, heard nothing. are they bugling this late in the season. saw old sign, one fresh wallow, that's it. gonna check another area tomorrow. Think looking at the easier access areas is a bad idea
