Utah General Elk The multi-season hunt is only available for the spike-only units, though. Spike-only hunting did not change much in 2023. There is still a 15,000 permit quota in place for the rifle and muzzleloader seasons, but there is a 4,500 permit cap on multi-season spike permits that can be sold.
WHAT'S NEW? Mandatory harvest reporting for general- season hunts: The Utah Wildlife Board voted to require mandatory harvest reporting for all general- season buck deer and bull elk hunts beginning in 2024. (All limited-entry, once-in-a-lifetime and antlerless hunts still require mandatory reporting, as well.)
Over-the-counter (OTC) tag sales will begin Tuesday, July 9 at 8 a.m. MT for 2024 general season archery elk. Permits can be purchased through any Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (UDWR) office, at all license agent locations or online.
While in the field, the youth and the adult must remain close enough for the adult to see and provide verbal assistance to the young hunter. Using electronic devices, such as walkie-talkies or cell phones, does not meet this requirement.
The general-season bull elk permits allow hunters to harvest a bull elk using a muzzleloader or any legal weapon. There are 15,000 spike bull elk permits and 15,000 any bull elk permits available.
The largest herds in the state are found on the Manti unit in central Utah (at about 12,900 elk); the Plateau unit in southwest Utah (at about 7,800 elk); and the Wasatch Mountains unit in north-central Utah (at about 6,000 elk).
Points in Utah do not expire if you miss a year or several years of purchasing or applying.
