Hi guys,
First post here - been lurking for a bit to get a feel for the site. Looks like a good place to sit a spell.
I didn't get drawn for my first season tag and am looking at options. I have a place or two down by Gunnison but want to explore the gazzillion elk in the Elkhead mtns but have never hunted there. I understand the area gets alot of pressure but it is a big area and there should be areas to roam. My plan is to hunt on foot - no horses, no 4-wheelers. I'll likely park at the end of one of the roads, hike in a mile or so, set a tent, hunt from there.
Anyone ever hunt up there in second season? How is the 4-wheeler traffic - looks like most of the trails are closed but that never stopped them in the past in some areas I've hunted..........
Anything anyone care to share would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
