    Adams Lake elk heard

    I exect to move to the Sorrento in the near future. I understand that there was a herd of elk there, but that the herd is not doing too well or is decimated. Has anyone know about the herd's health and size?

    We saw a herd of about 12 or so at the north end of adams lake. The CO figuered that the predators kept there numbers down around a dozen, so there will never be a season there.

    2011 was hard on them. The wolves hammered them, killing at least 7 bulls that I know of.

    Even if the herd was doing good in the Adams, they are OFF LIMITS to hunting.
