[QUOTE="wboregon, post: 1458449, member: 102916"] I don't know much about Idaho, but I will say this. Unit 18 is right there on the border with Oregon, and I believe is part of the wallowa-Whitman national forest. I believe Oregon Snake & Imnaha units on the other side of the state line. This IS GREAT elk country. But the elk are under serious pressure from both hunters and wolves. Prepare to go DEEP and STEEP. I hunted the Minam unit last year for first season rifle elk and saw nothing but many month old sign. the elk there don't come out of the deep stuff until the snow comes down, so if you hunt lines up with the first heavy snows you might luck out. other than that if its warm and dry then get your self a horse team and head away from any roads MANY miles.

The lower elevation stuff was a serious zoo, I've never seen 100s of people camping next to each other hoping to hunt something before... [/QUOTE]
