Camp Condition: 6

Food Quality: 10

Guide Experience: 5

Overall Impression: 8

Recommend: yes, definitely

Reviewer Comments: saw tons, if i had had a rifle, could have shot at 5 over 300b@C WITHIN 200 YDS unfortunately, i had a mathews instead. the elk would not come in close enough to get a bow shot. either the guides calls were not good enough, or maybe the elk were not in full swing at the time. heard too many bugles to count and on better days saw 40-50 head. some in the 320-330 class. one hunter out of 6 got a shot at 20 yds, everyone was close but no other chances. oh yes, i did pass a small 4 by on the 3rd day of a 5 day hunt. no guarantee but it was a worthwhile hunt.

Reviewer Comments: JOHNNY AND I WERE ON A SPIKE CAMP HUNT, SO WE DID OUR OWN COOKING. THEY HAD OTHER CAMPS WHERE THEY COOKED FOR YOU. ONE DAY THE COOK BOUGHT SOME EXCELLENT BARBEQUED CHICKEN OVER FOR US. SAW POPE AND YOUNG ELK EVERY DAY. FOUR WITHIN 40 YDS. TREES AND BRUSH IN THE WAY, FOR ME, TWICE JOHNNY HAD A CLEAR SHOT BUT OF COURSE HE WASN'T HUNTING. I WAS UNSUCCESSFUL, BUT NOT BECAUSE OF THEM. I HAD TWO SHOT OPPORTUNITIES. IT IS FOR SURE IN THE MOUNTAINS, 9,000' WHERE WE WERE, DOWN TO 7,000 SOMETIMES. YOU CAN'T GET IN GOOD ENOUGH SHAPE, JUST BE SURE TO GET IN AS GOOD AS SHAPE AS YOU CAN. I AM 53 AND DID ALRIGHT. WOULD RECOMMEND FOR SURE, VERY FRIENDLY PEOPLE, EVEN TOLD ME I COULD COME BACK, WHICH I AM GOING TO DO.
