[QUOTE="IdahoCTD, post: 1221363, member: 13110"] I've killed elk in 16 but that is before the wolves ravaged much of central ID. I haven't been up there since the early 2000's. Where I hunted you needed to be able to shoot up to 850yds so I hauled my old military rangefinder up there and ranged everything and wrote the distances on a blown up picture. I'm sure the clear cut we shot from has grown up a lot since then and I'm not sure you could still shoot across the canyon. It was about a mile and a half to two miles behind a locked gate. I hunted 15 probably a total of 5 days and didn't see many elk. That country needs clear cuts to make it huntable from any kind of distance. Since most all the logging has been shut down here I doubt there are any new clear cuts. After 20+ years it's hard to see in a clear cut unless you are way above it. The only other option is to still hunt the dark timber and that is a PITA IMO. [/QUOTE]
