[QUOTE=Zim;3941951]KT, I was actually in Idaho a couple days during my Wyoming moose hunt last year. Drew unit 20. Freakin wolves howlin every night. The moose as well as elk were dam near extirpated in my unit. I put in as many as 16 miles hiking in one day and found extremely little game. Hiked to the highest peak where I could glass probably 25 square miles two mornings and saw 2 cow moose. Joke of a hunt.

After drawing nothing anywhere I was thinking of applying for elk/deer/lope in Idaho this year for first time in many, despite big NR nonrefundable license. Think I have a few days to decide. Not sure what to do.[/QUOTE

Zim, where I live in North Idaho, deer hunting is still good. But elk season has been cutback to two weeks, mostly because of the wolf inpact on the herd. Quite discouraging for big game hunters. Tough times for big game in Idaho right now.
