    Indian River Roosevelt Elk - 2-08A

    Hi All,

    Just want to put it out there to start, this is not a "put in for a draw that I don't even know where it is" thread.

    As usual this year, I checked my LEH and found I had drew for a goat tag I was hoping to pull, YES my years made, I get to do a hunt I really wanted to.

    I log off and log into my old mans, and have to check twice to make sure I'm not imagining things but he drew the Indian River Bull Elk

    Being from the lower mainland, this gives me great opportunity to put boots on the ground and start working as this will probably be his only opportunity at harvesting an elk and I want to make sure we make the most of it.

    Now I've already reached out to some people who I know have experience with the tag and elk hunting(as I havent done alot) but I also wanted to post to the public if anyone was open to maybe shedding some light they have on the area or would be open to having a chat/PM me, it would be greatly appreciated and if theres any help I can give back, I will be sure to do so.

    Cheers and goodluck to all this year!

    I was up there in the spring staying at the RVYC lodge right at the end. We went looking for them as we were told they hang out in the old soccer field right beside the clubhouse on the beach.

    I've been up there but I wasn't looking for elk so can't help with that. Access though, the obvious is to take a boat up Indian arm but a lot of people don't realize you can come over the pass from Squamish and down onto the roads along the Indian River and right down to Indian Arm. Not with a truck mind you but a dirt bike for sure and maybe quads.

    Is that due to the washout?

    I was last in there about 5 months ago and there were two other trucks in there although I imagine they must of beat on em pretty good doing it. There's 2 places where there boulders size of bowling balls. Like above says probably need a dirtbike or quad to get thru. Once in awhile they do a bit of grading so you might get lucky.
