I just returned from the Elk Valley this morning our group took two 6 point bulls and we seen quite a few legal bulls high on the slides , we watched one yesterday in the AM he had 9 cows with him and we could not make out for sure weather he was legal or not ,We called but he would not leave the cows , just kept calling back even to a bull challange call he stayed with them , lots of grizzly activity as well , Great place to hunt Elk the scenery was second to none .We did several hikes into the slides and it was tough going but it did pay off. Enjoy your trip :mrgreen:
