    Thank you! I am from a ghost town in eastern Oregon, its 5,500’ up in the mountains, so we only go half the yr. We take drives every evening to watch the wildlife. You can see herds of 700-800 elk in these beautiful high mountain meadows. I am 68 and have see this gorgeous site all my life. It is spectacular. I have even seen a big herd of elk swimming across a bay on the OR coast. Grateful and blessed to live in such a beautiful state!!!

      @ 2/3 of OR wants to succeed and become part of Idaho. OR is run by the 3 largest cities full of leftists who moved here from CA, trying to make this state exactly like CA. They simply have the numbers to out vote all the rest of the state, who are patriotic citizens who love this country and who can’t stand the leftists. It sucks

    “Elk are typically visible on the National Elk Refuge from mid-December through early April. In late spring, elk begin migrating off the Refuge toward their summer ranges, following the receding snow line up to higher elevations in Grand Teton National Park and the Bridger Teton National Forest. From October through December, deepening snow cause the elk to seek food and shelter at lower elevations in Jackson Hole.”

      You really want an Elk? Hunt with horses. You cover 10X times or more ground, and when you get one, you have the game bags over your saddle, and it's much easier to get them out. I got 5 elk over my hunting career, and having horses was the difference maker. You get past where everyone else is, and find the animals literally goofing off. The problems now days are the wolves, and the elk bunch up like this, because there is safety in numbers and hundreds of sets of eyes watching out for danger. Because of the wolves, they have made it a needle in a haystack proposition. All or nothing.

    To encourage my son to learn to spot elk, I offered a dollar an elk, unaware we were about to drive in to Elk Grove. He stood up in the RV as the herd came into view and started counting out loud. I quickly said- $20 limit. Kid made an easy 20. As your elk were jumping the fence all I could think of is how many dollars I'd owe him. A great memory.

    Jackson hole used to be the elk wintering grounds from all the mountains surrounding jackson hole.....then everyone discovered this beautiful place.in the late 60's jackson hole wintered about 900 people. There was 1 cafe and all the shops would be closed. THEN the ritzys moved in , then the millionaires thought they would love to have play estates there, THEN the billionaires run the spoiled millionaires out . Now you can't find anyplace to rent maybe if you want to pay $2500 a month for a single bed shack. everyone commutes from Idaho. GREED and the rick snobs have ruined a once untamed wonderland.

    Growing up in Colorado on a cattle ranch in North Park in the 50's and 60's, we used to see these huge herds of deer and elk. Some winters there was so much snow, they would stand along the railroad tracks and get mowed down by the hundreds.

    Don’t know if they still do it, but years ago you could take a sleigh ride in the winter out onto the Jackson Hole elk refuge. The elk got so used to it that the horses and sleigh could just mosey around in the middle of the herd. I got to do that one time; the coldest and most memorable hour I’ve ever spent.
