Why go to the Uintas? You can find elk on the Mt. right behind us. Just do a little scouting around the canyons from Farmington to Salt Lake and near Big Mountain on the road from East Canyon to Salt Lake. There is more public ground in there than you might think. I spent alot of time up there scouting for my moose last year and seen plenty of elk sign as well as several elk. A buddy of mine who works on Base with me runs several trail cameras up near Bountiful Peak he had pictures of several nice bulls last summer up there, a huge 5X5 and a young 6X6. The country is rough and watch out for rattlers. Good luck on your hunt, you can PM me if you like and I'm also a member of the Hill Archers. The price of gas now days it sometimes pays to scout closer to home.[cool]
