I just got back from my 1st Rose Elk hunt located in Oregon. The country proved to be steep and very thick with vegetation. It was very cool seeing all the ferns and moss covered trees. It reminded me of the forest moon of Endor where the Ewoks lived in the Rreturn of the Jedi. 
It’s so different than Colorado’s elk habit that’s for sure.
We spotted a herd of 15 elk feeding in a recent cutover created by the
lodging company. It was easy spotting them but would prove difficult getting within bow range. We spent the next 2 hours sneaking into bow range. I was able to get a long shot at the biggest bull in the group just before last light. We decided to wait until the morning to track the bull into the thick cover. Our patience paid off with a beautiful bull!!
