yes, called shoulder season
every hunt district ( HD's) has differnt dates and regs. so know what tag your getting.
as of last week 04-00 tag had 400+ left

most of these will take place on private ground, that GF will administer permission too on a first come first serve call in system . they will not take cow elk hunters until after the general season as many are leased for bulls. but if you time the weather right can be a good hunt and fill tags

fwiw the call in system is i would suggest multiple guys trying to call in or you will get the busy signal for 30 mins straight
