I've lived on this unit for 33 years now,,watched the rise and fall of the elk heard.
Unfortunately right now the Nebo elk are on a bad downward side simply due to the
issuing of TOO many permits....

The archery is exceptionally difficult with extremely call shy bulls...
There are places you can go chase 280 to 310 bulls but anything bigger is tough..
If you only have one or two points invested and don't mined the 5 year wait its an ok
hunt...........If you know the unit VERY well.

I've hunted deer up there for the last couple of years and only ran across elk a couple times. Saw a small 5 point bull last year and tons of cows. My buddy hunted last year up there and he was able to find a couple decent bulls but put a lot of ground under his feet. Some of the places that seem to hold the most elk are towards the end of Pole canyon, Maghongany Null, and some of the canyons around Devil's Kitchen. Most of the people who hunt elk use horses since the elk up there are usually quite a ways away from the main road. Good luck!

Was up payson canyon riding my horse today and came accross a heard of cows and calfs. Maybe 50 animals.

But we usually seem them in this area this time of year but as soon as the hunt comes they move off. We were just up the top of Payson Canyon.
