[QUOTE="Deleted member 107796, post: 1699797"] You have a great rough plan and enough time to carry it out. Both places are good although the CO elk populations do have the nod and the WY locations are more wide open. In any case, it'd be great if you had the means to do a quick scouting visit once you narrow it down. Studying the public land maps and div of wildlife resources of both states will help greatly. As long as you're willing to do something different than driving or ATVing constantly or hunting a short distance from noisy camps, don't be hindered by the zoo because that is what they are doing. Finding your drainage or dark N facing timber where they bed in the day, to be patient and keep an eye on, is what will get you your elk. I showed my wife this last season when I showed her the drainage we would watch from top to bottom, from a good overlook. The ATVers paraded by one by one and at 9m, 5 elk heads come from the low thick beds right up our drainage and a beautiful cow presented herself and my Tikka 300wsm did the rest. Let us know how your planning goes and feel free to contact me for specific CO area info. cheers, mike [/QUOTE]
