Just got back from hunting in Kalispell and Missoula area, spent 2 weeks there. Hunted Chippy Creek, Hubbart Reservoir, Coney Peak, Pyramid Pass, Sunflower Mountain, Black Mountain etc. Saw lots of Wolf sign and could here them houling. Went through a hunter check point outside of Missoula and here is what was posted on the board, 719 hunters checked through and the game harvested was 2 whitetail does and one elk. At that point we packed up and went back home. Won't be going back to northwest Montana. We did see probably 10 muley does and one cow elk after many miles. We are not truck hunters and hunted hard. Did not even use my camping gear do to we could not find enough game sign to warrant going after. I am 56 years old and had hunted in Montana in the late 1970's and 80's. What a shame this is. The only variable that I know has changed is Wolves.
