Idaho unit 49 elk around Carey, ID

[kzkammo]

Does anyone have any experience with what the elk are usually doing around Carey, ID in December? Just looking for any general info, do they stick around or move out when the snow flies?

ive seen them out in 52 a close to cary, next to 49 a few years back,,dont know much about 49 though.

I think most blow out for the winter but I have seen some winter along the big wood.
but most of my knowledge of this unit comes more from working then hunting, so don't take this as gospel.

Thanks for the input guys. I'll be up there scouting throughout the month of November to see how the OTC cow tag pushes them around. Hoping to find something for our December hunt.

no they don't but saw one bull that would have scored about 650

With the nuclear genetics would that be recognized by B&C? Or just SCI?
