Elk hunting in Wyoming
I am going on my first ever elk hunt, and my first trip to Wyoming. I will be looking for advice on everything from clothes, travel so feel free to chime in and give me what you got! I appreciate any first hand knowledge you care to share with me and I know it's early, but at least I can have time to aquire any gear I don't have.
We are going to be in an area around Dubois (sp?) hunting areas 68 as well as maybe some others. We will be rifle hunting first week of October and some of the guys I am going with have been many times before. We are not using a guide, we are going "DIY", and my customer is the one putting this together. He has a brother that lives there and works for BLM that takes vaction from Sept. 15th - Oct. 15 to hunt, so I think we pretty much have a guide.
My early plans are to ship all my gear to his residence, then fly there and rent a 4x4 truck for the week. With the cost of gas, figure I should just about break even and save time by flying.
So there you go, my first question - fly or drive from La.?
