Default Suffield GPS question

Anyone know the rules around GPS requirements at the elk hunt. We have one guy with bull tag and me with 2 cow tags. We will have a helper with us. Do we all need GPS? We are hoping to get into walk in area a couple days and will be together at all times. Thanks for any info.

Anytime I have hunted out there they only ask to see one GPS and it can't be your phone. That covers the whole truck especially if your going to stay together.

Hopefully the range officers don’t tell you where the elk with the gps collars are

One more question. Is the cell coverage in the base good?

It's hit and miss depending where you are.

Make sure you have an Emergency Blanket as well they asked for that last year as well as your PAL.
