Muley/Elk hunting in Wyoming

[chrisu]

I have a coworker that can get me onto private land in Wyoming at the bas of the mountains. I am looking at getting out there next fall (2007) for mule deer and/or elk. Anybody know the drill for licenses/requirements? I plan to surf to Wyomings DNR website, but thought some of you may have first-hand experience with this...Thanks.

I drew a mulie tag this year. The process is relatively easy. You just need to make sure you have the right unit and get the money/app in on time. If you need help during the application process next year drop me a PM.
