Hello, I will be buying my first preference point this year for wyoming for an elk hunt. Looking to hopefully draw a tag in a good area in 4 years or so. I have elk hunted Colorado before but want to try something new. I am interested in the areas in the northwestern part of the state, I know there are grizzlies in some of those areas but what would be a good area for a decent archery hunt? While I am waiting for points to build I would like to mix in a general tag for areas that don't need points, how is the western part of that state for this. Any help would be greatly appreciated, just trying to get a few areas I can start to look into a little more. Thanks

Eastman's hunting does a good write-up on the good areas in the northwest. A subscription is not much and can supply you a good starting point for your research. There are some real good areas there, and grizzlies are definitely an issue to be aware of for archery season. That is why I hunt late cow hunts!

I know there are grizzlies in the area, how many roam around up there? Do the areas along the west side of the state have grizzlies as well?

I'd also acquire bonus points in NV, AZ, & UT.
