Less people; seem to see more elk; good time of year. 



You see more game and have a chance to hear them bugle. 



The excellent opportunity in taking a mature bull. 



It is more competitive to yourself. 



I have a great time at it. 



Being able to hunt the bugle; price is right; lots of animals. 



Lots of territory and good amounts of sign. 



The years I hunted elk (mid 1970's), conditions were adequate. 



It give us all the same opportunity and plenty of time to hunt. 



Yes, except it could be improved by having a late deer season. 



We have a better opportunity of any state to take an elk. 

 Because there are still remote pristine places to go (no motor 

 vehicles) . 



Good opportuntiy due to time of season, length of season, and 

 amount of game we have . 



The rut which is vital to elk hunting does occur during open 

 season. 



PART 3 -YES 



I believe the period and length of the season affords a person 

 the opportunity to experience a quality hunt. 



Less hunters and more acess to the Mountains; the gates are not 

 closed (Enjoy hunting with friends) 



I see nice sized Bulls 



Good accessibility-Fairly good population 



Being able to bugle for them 



The game is there its just a matter of getting one 



So far 



MOST AREAS ARE OPEN FOR EITHER SEX 



it allows a person to get out when the elk are bugling. 



Broad range of opportunities.
