new mexico: Lincoln National Forest

[caveman77]

Anyone have any information about elk hunting in the National Forest. Will be my first time for early archery elk. Any advice/info appreciated.

what unit is that? 34, 36? 35 I think is the indian reservation.

Either way both border the reservation, all 3 are suppose to be pretty good, from what I've heard many bulls over 300", though I hear the gila has the majority of the 400" bulls, though anywhere can produce a big boy, and this year moisture I hear has been incredible, could be a great year!

Best of luck.

Hunt below Cloudcrouft. It is a very good area with lots of elk. Try Scott Able Canyon and all surounding areas. Good luck
