Just thought I would bump this back up to the top. I appreciate the couple of responses I got on this. If anybody can think of a west side area that you'd say is definitely worth a looksee for the late hunt, I'd appreciate it. And any tips for hunting them in December would be great too. I've never even seen an elk during the late hunt, so I'm obviously not doing something right. Thanks.

Hunt hard, live right, and tell your kids you love 'em!
