Elk Expectations in 2010!
by elkheave on Jan.30, 2010, under Colorado Elk
It’s 2010 now and before you know it September will be here. What are your plans for your visit to elk country this year? Will you attempt your first solo backcountry hunt? How about a guided hunt this year?
Winter snow has been light in Colorado’s central mountains. Snowpack is a little low so far. Around 84% of normal in the central and northern mountains and a whopping 111% in the San Juans! As of early December elk haven’t had to migrate as low due to lack of snow. In March the southern slopes will begin to thaw and elk will graze on new grasses as spring officially arrives.
Keep an eye on this blog as winter 2009/2010 winds down.
