WOW.. get to hunt elk in california. could be a once in a lifetime hunt at my age 56. i've killed elk in idaho and colorado but who would have thought california. i also drew x2 mulie tag. it's going to be a year to remember.
LUCKY MIKE:
Congrats on your tags Mike. Hope you knock down a big'n. I think at the rate I'm going I'll be lucky to draw an elk tag by the time I'm 56.(I'm 1 point below max ) Did you have max points or were you one of the lucky few?
Yes i had max points. nothwestern zone takes in all of del norte and humboldt counties. there are three small area hunts also in those two counties, del norte,klamath,and big lagoon. i think i will be close to Orick. can't wait.....
So.Cal., but don't hold that against me...UPDATE, soon to be NM

Congrats on the Elk tag, is that the either sex hunt? Have you had a chance yet to find anyone that has hunted it before? Regardless, goodluck on your hunt, that's beautiful country up there, my son went to school up there and I spend quite a bit of time cruising the hills checking out the elk and deer in the area. You'll have a ball
That is so great campwithacook, congrats! I have done some backpacking out of Orick and loved hearing those bulls bugling in the old growth forests. I am sure you know the area better than myself after scouting and such, but let me know if you have any questions regard the trails leading out of Orick and I will do my best to help!
