I drew a moose tag for East Canyon - Morgan/Summit, and could use some help with some access. I've been switching areas to apply for the last few years, due to the fact that my first couple of choices have not been producing very big bulls. I think there are some big bulls here, but the problem is most of the unit is private property. I have a couple of places to try, but if anyone owns land up there or knows someone who does, I could always use a little help. Personally, I think just going on a limited entry hunt is almost funner than having the tag. No pressure on you to shoot anything. If you want a fun hunt, give me a holler. The unit boundries are basically the mouth of Weber canyon, up I-84 to Echo Junction, across I-80 to say Little Dell/Mt. Dell, then across the Morgan/Davis county line North to Weber Canyon. If anyone knows this area or has access and would be willing to help out a fellow BFT hunter, it would be greatly appreciated. My family owns a cabin up at Flaming Gorge, and I would be willing to take you up on the Gorge for a weekend in trade. Just shoot me a PM and we'll talk. Thanks for any help in advance.

How big of a bull are you looking for in this unit? I filled my tag 2 years ago on that unit and saw quite a few bulls in the 40 to 45 inch range all on public land. The area is fairly large and has quite a bit of public ground to hunt. I didn't hold out for a real hog just wanted to kill a moose. I wasn't really impressed with hunting them, I've had more fun on my elk and antelope hunts and hopefully this year on my buck tag I drew. Good luck on your hunt and I hope you harvest what you are looking for.

Seems like every year I see big bulls up Farmington Canyon. I think if you went up and scouted it pretty good, it wouldn't be very hard to find a few bulls. There are a few ponds that I always see moose hangin around.
If I were you, I would drive the skyline road (farmington - Bountiful) and glass every canyon you see. You should find a few bulls somewhere in there. I think it would be really beneficial to talk to everybody you see up there as well. People always run into Moose up there and would probably be glad to help out.
Good luck!

Thanks for the reply. What you suggested is definately either plan A, B or C, just not quite sure right now. After scouting this summer I will know. Thanks again.

Just wanted to bring this back to the top to get some exposure again. Has anyone been up Farmington/Bountiful area this summer and seen any moose. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
