Hi. Starting a week around Canal Flats looking for Elk. Never been in the area before but hunting buddy has a basecamp here for us. Any info that could point us in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks all, and good luck as the season progresses.
Good luck! Haven't been there since initiation D when we won the banner in that old barn! Loved playing hockey there as a kid! I wonder if they still have that old tractor as a zamboni?!
I was there for a few days around the 20th of September. The only thing I called in were the other hunters. I was able to get some real bulls sounding off to my located bugles, however they were only wayyyyyy up the heavily forested valleys during the day. At night I called a few to try and find where to go in the morning. They stop calling around an hour before first light. Keep in mind I wasn't road hunting, but running around on an RZR then hiking all over. As another member said, go the west side. East was quiet.
We came down to grab some stuff in Canal Flats. Not much to be seen up in the hills except hunters. Saw a little wt buck and a few does. All the elk sign is old.
