[QUOTE="Buttermilk, post: 1669746, member: 5262"] I'm envious... :) Congrats on the draw. I've acquired 19 preference points now myself... I can't offer much in the way of how to hunt them (I've only been to the refuge a couple times for sight seeing). Terrain looks rugged. Probably need some real good footwear, as it's quite rocky, and I'd describe the area as "small mountains" instead of "rolling hills". You'll be limited to 5 shells per day, probably a good pack for packing in what you might need for the day and also likely need to bring what ever you want for food for each day as well. The pack might be needed for packing an animal out as well (I know of some who got assistance from the hunt personnel in getting one out, but that might not be the norm). From what little I know, the advice given to you by those assisting with the hunt is well worth listening to. There's even some youtube videos on that exact place as well, plus the Wildlife Department also has at least one video out on the WMNR elk hunt too. It's worth watching. [/QUOTE]
