Hi all! New member here and new to elk hunting (western hunting all together). Me and a group of people are coming up for 2nd rifle with a bull tag and mule deer tag. I have read all of the post on unit 54 and still have a few questions on the area.
We are leaning towards the Soap Creek Rd. area and are trying to plan a camping spot. Do people just pull off of that road and camp? How far up that road can you go? It looks like it runs through some private land at the end. Can you drive through that private land and access the trail head on the other side?
There are not very many trailheads except for the bottom of that road and the top of that road. I would guess that one would have to walk a long way if you took the trailhead at the base of that road to get into elk since its pretty low elevation at that point.
Any info on the area would be greatly appreciated.
