Looking for a Wyoming resident hunting partner

This is redundant. Preventing and regulating are synonyms here.

Non-residents can hunt Wilderness areas legally if they simply follow regulations. You are insinuating they are banned.

Now go tell Alaska you have the right to hunt Dall sheep without a guide. Then go bitch to new mexico who allocate tags specifically to guided hunters.

Everyone complaining about the Federal land restriction realizes it’s not ALL Federal land right? Just a small percentage?
You also can’t just go hunt Ferlderally owned Reservation land. Is that of issue as well?

This has probably been asked before but I’m a non resident. I think I have enough points to draw H next year. Wondering if there’s any residents I could talk into going with me into the wilderness areas during the archery next year. Looking for someone that has hunted multiple days out of a backpack. I have horses or goats that I could pack both of our supplies and food. I’m willing to do all of my own scouting as well. I would mainly be interested in the archery hunt. If anyone is interested or can point me in the right direction on where to find someone you can send me a message to figure out details. I can’t afford an outfitter so not looking for that.

Stay engaged on forums, get to know people, and what you’re trying to accomplish is possible. Certainly doesn’t happen everyday though. We’ve done it. Made friends with a resident on a forum. By dumb luck our spot A was his spot A. He took our names and info and got his resident guide paper without ever meeting us in person.

We’ve hunted together about 5x now. Been with him in the wilderness many times. We’ve killed 7 elk. Amazingly none were in the wilderness.

Good luck to you

OP, if at all possible, get involved in conservation efforts in Wyoming. Volunteer time in the summer and meet people that way. To me that seems like the best way to do it. One, it shows your invested in the states elk and two, you’ll be around others with the exact same mindset. Invite them to your state to hunt as well. Maybe offer that up first before asking them to take you into the wilderness?

Thanks, good to hear it’s possible to find someone through a forum. I knew it wouldn’t be easy as I’m sure there’s plenty of non residents looking to get into the wilderness areas.

Good ideas thanks. Never hunted Wyoming so wasn’t sure about how to go about finding residents so I appreciate the input.

I hunted a wilderness with a resident guide back in 2015.

There were more people there than my OTC area in Colorado.
Haven’t been back in a Wyo wilderness since. Haven’t needed to.

I should’ve put in the original post that I’m hunting deer not elk to that may change things.

For the region you mentioned, you could have a pretty damn good hunt never setting foot in a wilderness area.

Stop making sense!

How about this? NR can only hunt wilderness?

Rokslide Randy would be super disappointed in most of the wilderness areas.
