81jons Report post Posted June 12, 2011 Its gonna depend on what the fire does. If it does not cross the state line it will be very good because alot of AZ elk will be in the unit. Most elk are in the north part of the unit. Check areas like sheep springs. frieborn canyon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
truehunter Report post Posted June 19, 2011 thanks 81 jons Ive been watching the fire tentatively. It seems tha tmost everything is getting under control. I dont think its going to cross into my unit. In fact part of 15 is burnt. Hopefully it will be a great hunt. Might just be my year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TradBowHunter Report post Posted July 6, 2011 Whatever you do stay away from the brushy mountain area, south of 79, you will see more rv's and atv's than elk. Try north of the frisco, good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thewileyone Report post Posted July 12, 2011 There are wolves and mountain lions in the area. We hunted up near Luna two years ago and heard several wolves in the area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZbowhntr Report post Posted July 13, 2011 I deer hunted 23 a few years ago and saw way more elk than deer. Just north of Alma they were coming into the farmland to feed in the morning. Saw a couple beautiful bulls. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
