Me and a buddy would really like go elk hunting and are planning a trip sometime this next fall in November before Thanksgiving. I know Colorado,Wyoming, Idaho, Montana,Utah and new Mexico have elk but which state is it easiest to get tags. We would like to go and be able to hunt somewhere without a guide. More of just a backcountry hunt. Maybe pick up a black bear or miley tag as well. Any suggestions?

Easiest tags are probably Colorado
Best chance at a trophy are probably Washington (Roosevelt Elk) or New Mexico

as in 2018?
that's going to rule out Wyoming, Montana, Utah, New Mexico - all are draw states
Colorado is true over the counter. I think Idaho is as well.
I'd suggest checking out gohunt.com. They breakdown the states and units very simply.

Go to the Colorado website. They have an elk hunting tutorial. Lots of good info.
Second and third seasons are OTC bull tags in lots of units. Everybody in Texas hunts the second season but you can do fine if you let other hunters push them to you. Hunt dark timber and passes.
One of you should have a bear tag.
