If you get drawn, how many people can come along and assist you with loading the elk?

Interesting that the authority for the question asked is this forum rather than the regs and rules posted about the Suffield hunt. Does no one care where slopeshunter and the rest of us get our information?

We read the regulations and the draws booklet and the information from SRD we see on mywildalberta.com and the ESRD site. Everyone can get this information, and should.

But I am not sure why some random cyperspace forum expert is to be more trusted than the real authorities. If the rules don't say you can't do something, then you can do it within the confines of common sense, legalities, and ethics. This is hunting folks and hunters take friends to bring the beer and do the heavy lifting.

But I forget that everything on the internet is true.

Dude, draw results are tomorrow...

From the mywildalberta website. http://mywildalberta.com/Hunting/Hun...QuotaHunt.aspx

Quote:
The licenses will be made available through a draw process. Applicants will have a specified time period in which to apply for a license on-line or via a license distributor. Successful applicants will be selected through a lottery style draw, making the process equitable for all Albertans. Hunt details are as follows:

The application period will open at 9:00 am on January 05, 2015
The application period will close at 11:59 pm on January 14, 2015
Draw results will be available beginning at 9:00 am, Tuesday January 20, 2015. At this time, licenses will be available for purchase.

Why would I login a day early to check results that are for tomorrow? You and I are not drawn because the draw has not happened yet.

Kinda misleading. They should say "pending" or something instead of "not drawn".

Got this from My Wild Alberta, "There was a staggering 17,270 applications were processed for the Suffield Antlerless Elk Quota hunt. These applications were from a perspective 20,347 hunters."

Checked last nite and was not awarded. Same goes for the rest of my family and hunting buddies. Going to use this as a positive and take the time I woulda used for this hunt and go do something else. Probably head up north for a 3 day fishing trip to a lake I've been wanting to go to for a few years. Good luck to everyone who was successful on the draw!

Excuse the interruption...

Are pictures restricted on Suffield? If they are , what would the consequence be if caught taking pictures?

For anyone on a draw it is forbidden....for those hunting there without a draw, it seems it is ok and encouraged to post any and all celebratory photos on facebook.

The rules would be the same for all hunters. If you have photos and names send them to the Base Range Control Officer. I doubt they are going to CSI every FB photo so you would need 100% proof so don't send stuff unless it's a slam dunk. The photos I have seen are hunters with bull elk but no names attached...those are useless. CFB Suffield has a "black list" and if indeed the RC rules were broken they would go on that list no matter if they were drawn or FN hunters. If proven they broke the rules that person would not be allowed back on....but if they filled their freezer and didn't plan on coming back it's probably a useless excersise.

Glad to hear the rules are supposed to apply to all! I don't know for fact but the field photos I have seen sure look like they were taken ON the base.

Further to shedcrazy, if you are caught taking photos on the base your camera (or phone) could be confiscated and you will be kicked off the base. At least that's what they tell you in the briefing. That said, it would be pretty easy to get away with it, but I didn't take any. They seem to take it pretty seriously and a photo isn't that important to me. My fiancee won't let me hang them above the bed anyway. Not sure what her problem is.
