I have hunted the north half of 344 for 20 years now and have only seen 1 good mulie buck and a few forkers. Might see a couple dozen each year, mainly does with a forker. Might be different closer to the Athabasca or petite lake??? Not sure if that helps.

What size is worth tagging in your books ? just put a number out there

i know the area reasonable

Remember if you want a big Mulie you will have to work hard to get even in southern Alberta or Eastern Alberta/Peace area they are harder the bigger you want.. example the 2 and 3 points will let you drive up. the 4 and small 5 points will let you drive to 1/2 a mile then go bounding.. the 5 and 6's will be leaving the country if you drive with in a mile and 1/2.. unless you catch them with a doe that is in estrus or catch them surprised.
most times


Food for Thought

Default Bull Elk

Wow I live In Grande Prairie and I know for a fact that if someone told me where I could go to almost be 100% sure of getting a bull elk I would be gone in a flash

Just my Opinion

U bet man one message that said I've seen lots they are around! thats cool bro! I'm in Edson alot! I gave u my number let's meet up! no hard feelings! Haha

I just find it interesting that you want some advice from
Everyone here when I asked you for some info and told me to basically go find the elk myself when all I was asking if I was in the right area. That's cool man you have posted your truck on here and I'll be sure
To stop and we can talk mule deer spots for elk spots!

It was awesome for mulies around Hinton 25-30 years ago but now it seems that the whitails are taking over.Did see a little 3x3 buck up in the tri creeks area but that area is draw now I believe.
