**I posted this thread in backpacking forum as well - wasn't sure of best location for this question.
I have been to CO the last couple years for elk but am planning on trying to draw an ID elk tag and if not buy one OTC for central ID this year for a change of scenery and luck.
The ID online tools are great and looking at some of these units there seem to be motorcycle and off road trails across a lot of territory. I am looking for help with getting away from the motorized crowd as I'll be backpack hunting.
I looked for old threads addressing this and didn't find much.
Does anyone know if these trails are closed for hunting seasons? Do people actually follow that rule if present or is abuse rampant?
I'll be looking to arrow any bull elk as I've yet to get one and will be backpacking in with the hope of going 3-4 miles.
Thanks for your opinions and information.
