My apologies guys, though I'm sure it is of no substance now, we saw a great bull on private, a spike, and probably 20 cows the entire trip. We went the first week of season and heard one bull bugle in the middle of the night, not entirely sure that it wasn't another hunter. Weather was very mild and it was a fun getaway from the every day flat land lifestyle. I did no sort of elk hunting last season but this year I plan to go OTC in CO if I don't get lucky enough to draw in NM.
