Some E Scouting Help

[bigdogg2278]

First off I apologize for the dumb questions I am a flatlander planning my first DIY trip out west for mule deer going early season archery. I really hope to get out scouting once this summer before the season but that's not a guarantee at this point so I want to do as much e scouting as possible. Everything I have read about early season is above timber. I am just starting to do my e scouting but what am I looking for when I am looking at google earth? I have a couple pics below of the area I think I want to hike into what areas would you look for deer in? Thanks for any help or tips you can help me with.

During the midday, I'd look at mostly North or east facing slopes - but that's just me.

Look for water , food and cover. than look for travel routs between. Draws, Saddles + benches for bedding.

What state? Deer live in a variety of terrain in each state, even one mountain range to the next
