A buddy drew the valle vidal 1st season archery tag. I'm going to not hunt elk this year to make sure he gets the most out of this golden tag. Any info you guys have or past experiences would be awesome. We will research and make a few scouting trips before time. Wondering if e bikes are allowed?

E-bike: check with game and fish and the USFS ranger district in the area, regular mountain bikes are OK.
I hunted the 2nd season in 2017. Was done in 3 hours on opening day with a medium sized 6x. Stayed at Cimarron CC and hunted around Clayton Cabin. Don't spend the whole hunt bouncing all over, choose a likely looking spot and learn the elk habits in that area. If not many elk or they leave the area, regroup and focus on another area, learn their habits, etc....

I thought staying in the forest service CC required us to get up way too early to get up high. So, we packed into a remote area just below Little Costillo Pk sw side. It was awesome hunting. I turned down 6 different 6x6 first day waiting on a nicer one. That tag is to die for. Given the chance I would do it all over again. Best wishes.
