Curious if anyone has any tips or pointers? I will be hunting in the northwest corner of the unit? Anyone else on here hunt it in the past for any bull? Thanks

Modern season october 25th-December 7th.  I know snow plays a huge roll, just curious if anyone had any tips for the hunt.

Find a spot with some shooting lanes and wait for someone to push the elk by you.

I hunt it during archery, so during december I am sure the game is completely different.  But I do know that it is extremely heavily hunted during modern, so the above advice is probably good.  I would find an open area that is in off the roads a good distance, and surrounded by trees.  Set up on that, and wait.

I had the Archery mule deer tag for that area last year. I was there from Nov, 22- Dec 5. Trust me. You will have no problem finding a nice bull. They were EVERYWHERE!

I would not say that, general modern season with all the other yahoo's out there, it's a mad house with people every where.

And you are talking about after the general season is over, when the pupmkins have left the forest.

Well I believe that the modern fire arm season only goes to november 7th, correct me if iam wrong. As far as the hunting there can be a lot of elk in the area with a lot of big bulls! My suggestion would be find a big draw and set up a few stands so you can watch a lot of directions and wait for the elk to come

Let people push for you. My buddy spooked a small herd right below me and when i was 15 yards away from my vantage point I heard a bang.... Turned out to guys below me shot at once and took out the only two spikes... The herd was literally within 10 yards of them... Lucky *censored*s!

I plan on hiking in a ways. Where there isn't as much pressure.

Its really tough to get away from the preasure , use it to your advantage and stay out all day. the mid day can really produce well in an area with preasure.
