Nevada Unit 231, A little help please.

Post by dogkilr » Tue Aug 24, 2004 1:49 pm

I'm a newbie, so excuse my ignorance if I show any.
I have hunted Elk for many years in Plenty of Places, New Mexico, Unit 50-52 Brazos Basin, Chama, Idaho, Utah, Kolob Mtn, when Elk were first getting established, Salina, Monroe, all over the place, but due to work loads, have fallen out of things for the last 3 years.
I have a friend who drew a Nevada unit 231 Bull Archery Tag, and he has asked me to help him out.
9 Years to draw this tag, so he is excited to say the least, but this is his first ever Archery hunt, let alone Elk hunt.
We have been out to Scout the area, but have not had much success.
We have spent most of our time on Table Mtn, White Rocks, and Wilson Peak areas, but seen few animals.
I know the rain has spread the animals around, and their not hitting the water holes as heavily, but what I was hoping, is possibly anyone who has hunted this unit in the last couple of years, or shed hunters who know this area, may find it in their hearts to help a couple of die hards out.
Can someone point us into an area, that tends to hold a few more Elk than what we are seeing.
I realize 4 days of scouting isn't much, but it's all we had, and I know we need to get into the thick trees, but really felt like we would see more elk than we have.
Anyone out there want to help us out a little, and give us an area to concentrate on. His hunt opens this coming weekend, and we thought we would concentrate on the top and North End of Whiterocks. Any suggestions.
Glad to be on board, and look forward to chatting with some of you guys.
Take care

And thanks for any help some of you may offer.

I wish I could help, but don't know anything about that Nevada Unit. There has to be someone out there that knows something though?

Glad to have to join the forums and look forward to hearing from you.

Hello Site Admin., I'm originally from Hurricane, Utah.

Getting ready to relocate back, most likely around the Enterprise, or East Zion, Kanab area.
Sure miss the Southern, Utah area.
Getting pretty crowded down that way though.
Both my wifes and my family all live in St. George, Hurricane area.
Can't wait to get back after those bulls on Kolob.

I have hunted sheds out there for two years now and found some pretty good horns and know where some HUGE sheds were found. We spent most of our time around white rocks but either go on the north end or just south of the road up over the burn. Thats all I can say without giving out too much. Oh also you might try just north of "eagle valley" res on mount wilson side, but on south end of range.
