We've hunted that general area for 16 years. I've never hunted so hard to see so few animals. There were 5 of us that hunted from the opener to the following Saturday and we saw a grand total of 4 elk. Three of us never saw an elk,my dad saw a cow and my brother saw 2 cows and a rag horn bull.

Every person we stopped to talk to had the same report. A lot of guys were wondering what was going on.
