Marble Mountain Roosevelt Elk
Description
Are you one of the lucky few who drew the Marble Mountains Roosevelt elk tag? Or maybe you have quite a few points and are expecting to draw in the future. You're in for a hunt of a lifetime, but are you prepared? Everything about the Marble Mountains bull elk hunts are big. Their bodies, antlers, the mountains… We know where the bulls are and can get you and your elk out. The Marble Mountains zone is huge but we focus our effort on the Marble Mountains and Trinity Alps Wilderness areas and the surrounding National Forest.
This is a very special tag and we know how much it means. We spend countless hours scouting for bulls so that you can be in the perfect spot once the season finally arrives.
We use llamas to pack in a comfortable camp for the hunters and non-hunting guests who are there to share the experience. Bulls can weigh upwards of 1,000 pounds and llamas are also used to pack meat and trophies.
