That GMU is really big and the elk are pretty spread out. If you haven't done some scouting and are going in blind you probably will have a hard time finding them as they tend to move around and after modern firearm the herds are likely split up some. I hunt in there alot for deer.

For the late season I would think Winston GMU 520 would be a better bet there are way more elk in there and alot of big a** bulls. It gets hit hard for modern, but I have not seen that many people in there bow hunting during the early season ( in past years) so there probably won't be that many in there for the late.

Also, this year the big "W" put gates up and they are only open on the weekends so you can access the state land up front but not the big 'W' land in the back on weekdays. Because of the closure I would think there were less animals taken during the rifle season and that would make your odds better yet.

Good Luck
