"....but my question is does this chase all the elk away?"
Nope. Not at all.
In fact, go talk to the loggers. They will probably tell you they see elk all the time.
And when the logging operation is complete, the area is like a magnet to elk and deer.
If you really want to build the ‘fire’ with kids and hunting, take them as mentioned above but not every time.
They know it’s fun, and if you hold them back every now and then their desire to go will build more than ever.

If you have FB, go to the Jackson County Road Report page.
Otherwise look at the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office page
I got the above info from them
To those heading to N Park Colorado for 1st Season Elk this weekend
The Jackson Co Sheriff has issued the following:
Stage 1 Fire Restrictions goes into effect at 12:00 am (midnight) tonight, Tuesday October 8th 2024 for Jackson County.
So what is not allowed during a Stage 1 fire...
I got a verbal warning from a GW one time as I was hunting with my son. My son was the hunter, I was tagging along as a nonhunter, just wearing am orange hat.
GW said I need to have a vest on.
Colorado's 1St Rifle Season starts Saturday Oct 12, Wyoming has seasons already going but more starting Oct 15.
Bad things happen when hunting elk, but recovery efforts can be assisted by using a tracking dog.
