    We went for 2 weeks and came home empty... will never enter that draw again. Had MUCH better luck in the late October draw a few years ago.

    Where did you stay?
    Did you use snowmobiles?
    Others have claimed this to be the best season if you have the right equipment.

    My wife and I had the oct 15-31 draw last year, we hunted hard with zero luck.

    Stayed at pink mountain Ranch worth every penny!!! for success!!

    We were there Dec 21st to Dec 29th, saw bison every other day, shared hunt. Harvested two.

    Snowmoblies, cold as hell. all sightings were well off the valley floor. Both bison were shot in areas up high.

    They are there!! Just not in the valley bottoms, look at the south facing slopes and you will find them!!

    Stayed at the ranch and at horse camp.
    Used snowmobiles (and quad occasionally - not much snow at the beginning of the hunt)
    Spent a solid 10 days. Saw lots of elk on the south facing slopes and moose on the north facing.
    Spent quite a bit of time in the area west of Horse Camp.
    I guess after being shot at for almost 4 months they were pretty spooked.

    we were there for the last part of October, hunting was tough. Of the five or so groups hunting the valley I think we were the only group to even see bison.
