Try all the north slopes 3/4 to top . these elk will get bumped . years ago we found elk in july and they stayed put . Some one has been bumping them lately in 340 right before the season . i'm not pointing and fingers but choppers come to mind. Jim horn uses a early calling approch that i've used and works well its worth listening to. dont be afraid to call if you bust a bull theres more. Hunt hard and make your own luck. corey. Good luck I have that tag as well.
