lucky2hunt Report post Posted November 28, 2007 Well I'm gonna ask... My son has been hunting his butt off in 7E this week for a bull. He works from 7:00pm until 2:00am, gets up at 4:30am and is on the mountain and hiking into his spot by sun up. He hunts, hikes, glasses until sundown and goes back into work. He scouted hard before season, thought he knew where they were but never anticipated the number of people that would be out there. He passed up a spike on the second day, now he can't even find a spike! My husband has been out with him most the time, I blew up my shoulder a week or so ago so I am pretty limited with what I can do, I am great at sitting tanks . They have been up high on the mountain, gone down to around Indian Flats, sat water, just way too many people and the elk have vanished... Does anyone have any ideas? Suggestions? We hunt out of our house since it is only 15 minutes to hunting area. I sure appreciate any help, this kid has really impressed me with his effort, would like to see him connect, he's really getting frustrated... Ilene Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BRYCE CANYON Report post Posted November 28, 2007 If I had that tag, I would start looking east of 89 towards Strawberry Crater and even east of there. Another spot would be north of Leupp Road from Townsend Winona all the way east to the Res. These are "non-traditional" elk areas but they will get you away from the crowds and there are a lot of elk running out there. Good Luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lucky2hunt Report post Posted November 28, 2007 Thanks! We have been over by Strawberry Crater, absolutely no water over there! Even the trick tanks are either dry or frozen solid, they need water right now, don't they??? Appreciate the help! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
