Salmon Zone B Tag

[TylerR907]

Hello everyone, first-time poster here. I relocated from Alaska last year and recently obtained my residency this summer. I was able to get a Salmon Zone B tag. While I have hunted elk on Raspberry Island in Alaska, I have never hunted elk in the lower 48 states.

I've been exploring forums, E-Scouting, and talking with my family, who are generational locals to Salmon. They’re more trail hunters, whereas I’m a backpack hunter. I’m hoping to connect with someone who has experience hunting this tag or elk in general. I'd also be interested in having a second hunter join me, whether they have a tag (mule deer or elk) or not—I'm open to either as long as our hunting styles and mentality are similar.

I consider myself quite new to hunting in this region, although I’ve hunted Alaska my entire life. I’ve packed out moose, bears, sheep, goats, and more, so I’m confident in my packing and country skills. I’d be happy to help with Alaska-related questions or details if that’s helpful for your future trips. Contact me through PM please if you're looking to partner up, or willing to trade some info.

Thanks, and I look forward to connecting!

You not going to like it there, hope you are in great shape. It is some very nasty and steep country.
Good luck in your adventure....

Posting units is taboo around here, with your previous experience you'll be fine.

Yep, that's what I have heard! Sounds similar to the Chugach range in AK where I have spent a lot of my time. Steep, thick and nasty. I appreciate it!

Appreciate it! I know its tight lipped, (same way in AK) but would be open to partnering with someone since my family doesn't backpack hunt and honestly I'm not trying to go solo. I will, but not preferred.

It's not tight lipped, that's exactly why it's against the site rules.

Well, that hasn't been my personal experience so far, lol. I would request the contacts with info be over PM, not publicly. I appreciate it!
