Keeping my finger crossed that we got our first choice.

Good luck to everybody else that applied.

Got my letter in the mail today, we drew our second choice. Will be hunting San Juan, Abajo mtns. In December. If anybody is familier with this elk herd, I would be greatful for an info they would be willing to pass along.

Target, did you apply? If so how did you do?

Good luck to everybody chasing Elk this year.

I got my Utah Cow Elk tag from the Ute Indian Tribe in Ft. Duchesne in Febuary this year. They cost $350 plus a $5 app fee.

I think he said they had a 90% succes rate last year.

They must have a BIG herd.

Some fellow I knew when I lived in WA did the Ute Cow hunt every year. I was considering it and they suggested to hire one of the guides in town--he said you could find a local guide for about $100/day 5 years ago. They always tagged out in a day or two.

He also said they'd always get at least one flat tire...very sharp, rocky roads.

wmidbrook,

I was told the same thing by Mr. PaulC. He's gone a couple times and they always tag out.

DanD you should have now problem killing an elk on that unit I personally have never hunted the unit bout my partner has and there were plenty of elk to be found however he used a local guide who i think charged $200 or $300 per day

Hey, that's still not bad if you tag out in a day!!!!!!

The Abajo hunt is like shooting fish in a barrell. You will have to find out if they are still on the mountian and if they are you will need to come in from the Blanding side and you cannot miss them , they are everywhere. You will have a great time, but be prepared with chains and a good four wheel drive.
