    Elk hunt near Pink Mountain RFI

    Hi all,
    New member. I live in Region 7A and I’m taking my first venture North to hunt this season. Planning on heading up to Pink mountain area. Hoping to get some general information on best direction to head and whether most of the oil pad roads are passible for 4WD. We plan on hunting Elk and maybe deer if no Elk make themselves available. Thanks I’m advance. This far I’ve only hunted near home and haven’t had time from work to get the scouting in.

    Cheers!

    Most oil field roads are passible in your grandmother's grocery getter unless there's snow or mud. If there's mud sometimes even 4x4s can't get through.

    Things are going to be different this year with the moose closures

    Just be careful if it rains. The mud roads can be unpleasant without mud tires or chains.

    Great info. Thank you! Yeah. Our bull elk here don’t come out until January. I know one person that’s landed a bull within 150 kms of me in the last 5 years.

    Any suggestions east or west of the hwy?
