There are getting to be elk all over northern New Mexico.
I hunted Philmont as a kid - dad knew the managers.
I also hunted the Whittington Center country when Gene Stockton was still alive, and hadn't traded it off.
I've killed elk, deer, and antelope over much of NE NM - and can say that Philmont, Vermejo, Valle Vidal, Raton, Taos, Dulce, and Chama areas are unbeatable.
If you ever have the opportunity - take it!
