Elk Hunt - Idaho or Colorado?
I have an opportunity to bow hunt for elk in either Idaho or Colorado from 1-16 Sep 05. Which state would you pick and why? I don't have to get a big bull, but would like to see elk. I will be hunting with an experianced partner who has hunted elk before. I have only hunted deer in VA and am primarily going for the experiance. We' are both in good shape and working to get in even better shape prior to the hunt. Thanks in advance, Rick

I can only speak to Idaho. I saw well over a hundred in a 5 day hunt there 2 years ago but the closest I got was 80 yards. Very tough country with combined 5 to 8 thousand feet of altiude changes in a day of hunting. Had a great time even though I never got a shot..
