mp_moody Report post Posted November 30, 2013 I've got a couple of buddies and a handful of acquaintances up in 5B right now. Half are in 5BN and half are in 5BS. The southern part of the unit sounds like it has at least a few feet of snow in the higher elevations. The area where my trail cams were all summer is supposedly inaccesible due to several miles of snowed in roads. The guys in 5BS haven't seen much...not a lot of sign and zero elk. They also have a Jeep with a broken axle and a passenger car with a questionable transmission. That will be fun on Monday. Haven't heard anything from the guys in 5BN. Spirits, as you can imagine, aren't too high. I'm headed up Sunday afternoon when I get off work and will be there all day Monday. Not sure if I'll be messing with busted vehicles or if we will be hunting. I still want to focus on the southern part of the unit in the areas we scouted. Any thoughts, any success? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

couesbowhunter1 Report post Posted November 30, 2013 Been here since Thursday and haven't seen any elk! Saw about a 190" mule deer today with a few doe. Saw 2 elk hanging in 5b North and talked to a few guy in Clint's Well at the processor that have been here since Tuesday and they saw 130 some elk but haven't seen anymore since Tuesday! Tons of track but that's about it! Goodluck to everyone! If you have any pointers that you'd like to share I'd appreciate it! Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mp_moody Report post Posted December 1, 2013 I know at least one or two guys tagged out today on spikes. Not sure what part of the unit, but they haven't really seen any good bulls. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AZwest16 Report post Posted December 2, 2013 My wife's bull she shot right at dark on Friday! She shot 3 times at 340 yards connecting on all three! This is her first bull and I forgot to mention she is 7 months pregnant with our first baby! I'm a lucky guy!!! The elk are there just got to get away from the crowds! Good luck to everyone still hunting! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mp_moody Report post Posted December 3, 2013 Well I spent 24hrs in 5BN. Saw 24± cow elk, 12+ mule deer (4 of which were bucks), and 4 coyotes. No bulls, not even a spike. If I had more time I'm sure I could have found my buddy a bull away from all the roads. Both of them have tomorrow to pull it off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
