I, 1 As for scouting, youve got to realize (especially where many participate) in Utah that the elk could be well spooked away by the time you arrive w ith rifle. I once located 13 bulls on the Fishlake Forest only to discover on opening day that right where the animals had bedded three tents were no w staked out. You are far better off to do your scouting and hunting away from easy access, such as up on the remote Uinta plateaus. Elk are apt to be in any of the Uinta trails. slopes aw'ay from heavy-us- e Forget the valleys which have been pushed by fishermen, or at least right along those trails. A nice bull could be one basin over, however, especially likes of Dry Fork, upper Ashley etc. I once found three bands of elk, all with herd bulls, in a west slope Uinta basin without any fishing lakes, therefore much less human traffic fall. through summer-early j : If J'Uv'rSX 1 v JU- : ' , V: ' .. x "4 cs-- , m &v ' ...

If you do, I think youll shoot straighter, giving a mental as well as physical edge. Knife sharpened? Got ropes and at least one hatchet, plus a saw for quartering? Most veterans put a quarter in each horse panier, meaning two pack animals required for each elk. Tie antlers on top of pack so they dont goad your cayuse in the flanks.

Obviously, elkers must be prepared for anything. A few years ago three feet of snow fell on many favorite wapiti hot spots in central and eastern Utah. How much do you know about the game? Now in the middle of researching a book to be titled Elk and Elk Hunting for Stackpole Publishers. Im learning some intriguing new things about the bull elk. I study them throughout, the off season, and see enough at feeding refuges to know giant racks somehow elude hunters every season. (The same unusual antlers just keep showing up. with enough consistency that you have to believe these male wapiti have special techniques to grow older.) Many of them must hide from licensees quite effectively every October. I believe they do just that, hide.

First of all, do you know where your e is shooting this time around? If stored in a place with hot and cold temperature fluctuations, your zero could have changed. It happened to me once. The point is, even if the rifle's shooting where it always did, you want the confidence of knowing it ahead of time. Then, too, some wapiti shooting is done at ranges you might not have practiced at before up to 350 yards. I wouldnt want to try beyond that with less than a .270, 7 mm Rem. Magnum or such. You would likely have to aim a few inches over the target as well. Pleasant Grove's Erickson nabbed 16th at 18:46 and Cook finished 17th at 18:55.
