Slee.....I hunted the early season around Castle Rock...Was gonna hunt the timber Co. land....but it was to dry to they closed it to hunting. My friend over there who has a logging outfit.....took me for a ride up there just for a look see.....Elk were everywhere. It's a walk in area only....but if ya stay by the gate's...and hitch hike....I'm sure one of the logger's will give ya a lift. Don't understand....for bow hunter's it's a walk in only.....for modern...it's walk in during the week day's....then they open the gate's for the week-end.....guess they figure us bow hunter's have an extra advantage over the rifle's....lol
