We had about a 1 1/.2 mile stalk on the herd but caught up to them at the creek. 2 elk down and 2 or 3 to go, we have unlimited cow tags and the spouse will be looking for a nice bull too. We share elk meat with friends that don't hunt and WG&F wants a ton of elk taken out of this area. We did get the ride right close to the quarters but the hike back to get it was steep and rough. Sid by side was loaded down.

Hunted cow elk with my brother in WY, no one in our unit had saw elk so my brother and I spent two days packing in to the most remote area we could find, we bumped a herd and never came close to taking a shot but we saw elk and had to consider that a victory. When we got back to the parking lot days later we realized we had hiked out of our unit and into the wilderness area of the next unit. Had we gotten an elk we would of most likely been rewarded with tickets.
