2025 updates

Everyone is wondering so here’s a bit of a break down, the regulation book won’t be out until end of February, so here’s some updates we know are coming beginning in 2025

1. ALL NON RESIDENT ARCHERY LICENSES WILL BE DRAW ONLY. We aren’t sure how many licenses will be available to non residents, the word is they will take a 3 year average based on hunter surveys and give out 75% of that number. Most units that’s have gone to the draw system have 65% draw success, but those units included resident hunters. We are projecting a lot higher success rates of draw.

2. Season Dates
Archery Sept 2-30
Muzzy Sept 13-21
1st Rifle Oct 15-19
2nd Rifle Oct 25- Nov 2
3rd Rifle Nov 8-16

3. 1st rifle will start on Wednesday and end Sunday, 3rd rifle will now be 9 days instead of 7,

4. There is possibly going to be an optional deer tag during 1st rifle, depending on population estimates and goals

If you have questions let us know, we’d be happy to answer questions or find the answer to your questions.

Last bull off the mountain for 1st rifle!!! 3 out of 5 hunters harvested 1st rifle, with some passed shots. Avalanche Outfitters is putting them
On the ground, that’s 6 bulls this season so far, 5 bears. GOT ELK?

Good week 1st rifle so far, I have to brag on this one. My brother Jd Wamboldt drew the first rifle tag this year. He came up and hunted hard, day 1 he hiked 1000’ in elevation and passed a shot on this bull cause he didn’t present an ethical shot. He then hiked over and around and up and down trying to find some others with no luck. Day 2 he said he barely got out of bed but was going to get above me and my hunter in case we bumped the herd we were after. Me and my client sat for over an hour after hiking our butts off listening to several bulls bugling 100 yards away just over the ridge but our thermals weren’t going to work for us. Jd finally got to his lookout spot and I got a message that a big sounding bull was bugling across from him and sounded big, he finally got eyes on him at 450 yards. As we’re sitting 3/4 mile away waiting, I told Jd he could make the shot and just trust himself, and get a good rest. 5 seconds later I heard a shot, then the excitement built waiting for a message that he got him. We sat listening to our bulls bugling and finally the message came through that he did shoot but wasn’t 100% sure if he hit him and was going to go check. He hammered him, then the work began, completely processed him, stuck under a deadfall all alone. I’m super proud I could help him get his first elk off the mountain, and a hell of a bull at that. Beautiful 6X6 bull in a hell of a spot and a hell of a pack out even on the horses! Congrats buddy

It’s 1st rifle season and we’re busy busy!!!! We spent the first few days on the mountain chasing elk and our client let his 7mm PRC take his first bull to the freezer, we didn’t get many pics on the mountain due to where this bull decided to die but he’s headed to the freezer now. Congrats to Peter on his first bull you worked hard for it!!!

A few weeks ago, I went to call for my dog and discovered a rifle-toting, camouflage-clad hunter just beyond my porch. I started yelling, “Hey, hey—”
