Show Outdoor activities continue Reports from nonresident hunters indicate 11 of the 87 permit holders harvested an elk this year. The Board of Big Game Control had authorized 100 nonresident elk permits. Five percent success was seen in this year's archery elk hunt, with 13 of 332 permit holders taking home their quarry. In the deer muzzleloader hunt, 21 of 383 hunters havested a buck, achieving nine percent success. Bowden reported that public interest was apparently down for special either sex hunts in the South Boulder and Hobble Creek areas this year as not all permits allotted were sold. All 200 permits per-mits for the South Ogden Unit were sold, however. Even though most of this fall's hunting seasons are over, hunters hun-ters still have time left to go after several species of small game. The waterfowl hunt is in progress-ducks through Jan. 6, 1975, and geese through December 16. Cottentail rabbits are legal game through Jaa 31. Additionally, forest grouse and chukar and Hungarian partridge seasons remain open through Nov. 30. The cougar hunt is in progress and will continue through April 15. Fishermen also have some time to head to their favorite spot before the general season closes Nov. 30. After that date, however, waters designated as legal for year-round fishing will remain open. 1 |
