I’ve found a drainage with burn on the east side and not on the west. If I sit on the west and glass the burn will there be visibility into it? That would be more appealing for rifle
That’s good info I appreciate that. I have wondered how effective glassing will be because it’s so thick and big country. I guess I’ll just see what I get into!
I like that approach and what I intend to do. Lots of glassing in hopes to catch one going from food to bedding. I’ll update the group after my hunt for sure
That’s good to know man. Some of those drainages are a mile wide peak to peak! Big intimidating country for sure. I’m excited. Most likely going rifle for that reason
I need some input. I have a unit wide landowner tag for unit 45 New Mexico. My hunt options are muzzy October 5-9. Rifle oct 12-16. My first elk hunt. Muzzy is no scope so 100 yards max but I have discovered most have said the rut is still going on during muzzy.
What would yall recommend me...
That’s good info man. I plan to glass open areas daylight and evening but really not sure what to do during the day. Just hustle I guess? I planned on only taking a cow call honestly. Bad idea? Didn’t figure a bugle tube necessary that late. Glad to hear you enjoy hunting them that time of year...
I’m afraid I’m paralysis by analysis at this point. I keep telling myself to be flexible because my plan will most likely change when there. Oct 12-16. Hopefully they will be vocal enough to locate them dudes
I deleted my comments since I felt like I was being rude. Apologies.
I’m parking at iron gate. 6.2 mile hike in. Have a pack service on standby in the rare event I manage to be successful. It will mainly be a lot of miles daily in hopes of finding success. My whitetail experience will most...
Hey brother. Thanks for dropping a welcome. Super cool of you. A few members haven’t been so welcoming so far.
So yes on the frame pack. Went mystery ranch Metcalf 75. schnee beartooth.
I ran 4.2 miles Saturday. Probably best shape of my life.
What states do you hunt elk? I’m planning on...
