Altamont is north of Duchesne and I'm trying to find out if there are any motels in the city? I've got a late season cow elk tag for that area and I'm hoping there is a motel there that would be closer to my hunting area than Duchesne. If anyone has this info. do you know the name of the motel? Thanks for any help. WH2

Hy WH2 I'm not sure where your tags are for but Rockcreek Ranch has cabins it is north west of altamont. I believe they have a web site. If this is the right area for your tag send me a PM and I can get you the no.

My tag is for the east yellowstone unit of the south slope. I think I know where Rockcreek ranch is but I'm going to make some phone calls first and check if the motel is still in Altamont. I'll get back with you if the motel idea doesn't work out, thanks.
Lonnie, the motel is the best for me right now but I'll PM you if it does not work out, thanks. WH2

My friend used to live in a small motel in altamont I think it was the only one. They might have rooms available but I can't remember the name of it. It was pretty run down though I would give it 1and a half stars. But it would beet a tent.
Pm jed burton he grew up up there.

WH2,
Try the Rock Creek Store Bed and Breakfast in Mountain Home. (435) 454-3853. This is closer than Altamont to your hunt unit. I can't find any listings in Altamont. Good Luck
Good Fishing, Kayote

We have undeveloped property in Altonah Utah and alot of my family lives in Altonah or Altamont. This time of year, your best bet for lodging is staying in Duchesne and traveling the 21 miles every day or staying in Mountain Home. The rooms are nice there and not that expensive. There is a small motel in Altamont here is the # 435-454-3501. I had the same elk tag you have last year and I called to stay there at Altamont Motel but the owners move south for the winter but they did offer a room though for like $38 a night. hope that helps!!!

Thanks everyone for all your help, I think I'll call the number that Polokid gave me first and see if the motel is open in Altamont, then I'll give Mountain home a call.
Kayote, do you know the prices at Mountain Home? Thanks again guys. WH2
