Re: Snake river elk
Check out the headwaters of pumpkin creek and horse creek. Crazyman creek holds elk as well.

Re: Snake river elk
Go to the forest service hq just before you get to Enterprise. Get the WWNF map and and ask about road and fire closures. There are a few road closures in that unit.
Also, call Vic Coggins ODFW and ask him. vic has always done right by me.

Re: Snake river elk
During second season, the snow/weather may dictate where you can't hunt. If you talk to Vic, ask him what the trend has been for the last 5-6 years regarding the weather at that time of year.
