Wyoming Elk Hunt info.
Question:
My friends and I would like to try an Elk Hunt in Wyoming in 1999. I have a Wyoming Game and Fish application book. We would like to camp and hunt on public land. If anyone has any ideas on which areas have a high population and high draw probablity, please let me know. Thanks Glen Visit the rec.hunting and rec.hunting.dogs FAQ Home Page at: http://sportsmansweb.com/hunting/

Well, I’m not sure if this fits all your requirements, but in the 1998 season there were a few non-resident Elk licenses (antlerless only) available over-the-counter for Area 58 (just south of Cody; much of that area is on the Hoodoo Ranch which again allowed "no-fee hunting"; don’t know whether they allow camping on the ranch) on Oct. 31. Area 58 also includes quite a bit of National Forest land on Carter Mountain, and while deer-hunting there my party saw a pretty good-size herd of elk which included a 6×6 bull and about a half-dozen "junior" bulls. AFAIK, you can camp on the National Forest land on Carter Mountain. -jc- — Visit the rec.hunting and rec.hunting.dogs FAQ Home Page at: http://sportsmansweb.com/hunting/
