If applying for the draw, a conservation stamp (appx. $21.50) is required. If archery hunting an additional archery permit (not necessary for type 9/archery only licenses) for about $72 is required. All license fees are paid up front when applying- fees vary from special to regular drawings. Regular elk licenses cost about $707. Special elk licenses cost about $1,283.

If applicant is NOT drawn, a refund will be initiated for the license fees and a point will need purchased in the summer point purchasing period July - October.
