Blade Report post Posted August 9, 2013 I have a limited op hunt in the antelope mountain hunt area of unit 1 coming up soon. For me, the goal and purpose of this hunt is to put meat in the freezer. Right now my plan is to focus on the areas around canero creek and antelope mountain. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with this hunt or knowledge of the area they would be willing to share. Thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SWDesertRat Report post Posted August 10, 2013 It is an elk hunt he is talking about, west of Springerville, limited opp. cow. Never hunted in that particular area but spent some time in there. You can find elk on that sw border closer to the trees, theyll likely move into the trees each morning but thats only a guess. If I were you, I'd also pay attention to the flats and all those little draws that head out towards the highways. Get high and glass. Dont forget about that portion of the hunt area closer to Springerville. The hunt was designed to alleviate elk impact on those hay and alfalfa fields in that valley. Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blade Report post Posted August 11, 2013 Cow elk tag in the antelope mountain hunt area of unit 1. Ive hunted grouse around the greens peak area a few times but have never been as far east as antelope mountain area. My guess is there are a few resident elk in that area that G&F want to get ride of. i went up there this weekend, i saw deer, antelope, a yound bear, and a dead elk. Since im not very familiar with that area i was wondering if anyone else was. i was up there this weekend and spent some time up on antelope mountain glassing. I could see the fields to the east in the flats but i think my best bet is to focus on the west side of antelope mountian in the trees. there was water every where which is good for the wild life but bad for the hunter. i took the week of the hunt off from work so i will have plenty of time. i might try to go talk to some of the property owners in that area.
