From what I understand you can only access state land to scout two weeks before your hunt dates, then actually hunt on your allotted dates. You can only camp in designated campgrounds and must drive on designated roads.

I have the Tikka in 300 win mag and I love it. Verry accurate, action is great, and trigger is nice as well. You feel the recoil because the rifle itself is pretty light but I put on a Limbsaver recoil pad and that has helped quite a bit.
Hey Everyone,
I drew the 1st rifle hunt for elk this year. I’ve hunted this unit before during archery season and was able to find elk but I have no idea what it will be like come October. Anybody have experience rifle hunting this unit? What should I look out for?
Thanks in advance!
Thanks everyone. I ended up filling my tag (picture attached) and went with Green Valley. So far its been a good experience. One day soon I'll get my own setup but for now I'll have someone else do it.

I would definitely like to get to a point where I am able to do it myself. However, I'm a newbie hunter (4th year hunting and first elk hunt) and just don't have the experience or resources to do it myself as of right now.
With that said, what would one need in order to diy?
Looking for a good/trustworthy meat processor in or near Albuquerque, NM. Anyone have any recommendations?
I've heard that some will process and give you the meat from other peoples' animals and I'm trying to avoid that.
Thanks in advance!
