Since most of the Root is on fire including most of my elk spots I am looking for GPS coordinates and honey holes so me and shootsstraight can kill a couple mature bulls close to a road. Thanks in advance.
 
The Custer national forest between Ashland and Broadus has 6 fires burning also. One fire burned 40,000 acres in a day. Maybe you can park in front of the fire and get one when they come running out.

I hear hardly anyone hunts Custer, any truth to that?
 
Only 1 or 2 guys. Won't be very many this weekend unless they want to fight fires. ............:)
 
45.6806888,-111.04666980000002. This should bring up your spirits.

Is 5 miles close enough to a road for you two, or should it be wheel chair accessible?

In addition to swingset muley bucks, we do have some swingset bulls around. But, you're probly too late in line to kill one. mtmuley
 
But you can in the Bob or Bearthooths. I'll put you guys down for wheel chair coordinates and see what's available.

Hmm, I didn't think you had been anywhere other then Buckhorn Saddle. Cool. Shoots will get that case of Coors you owe him too?

There should be a handful of potential world-record bulls that you can choose from
 
If nobody wants to share their elk spot, I heard the upland hunting south of Malta is the best in the state.
 
I usually don't do this but....

The yellow is prime early September elk habitat. The Red circles are buffered waypoints of Bull Elk Tracking Collar locations in the last 24 hours. Dress accordingly, it's hot out there. Best of luck!
