No joke, 

I would start by walking the streets of downtown Dayton and asking for advice.  I would imagine it wouldnt take long till you found a good point in the right direction.

There are some knowledgable people in dayton if you ask around. You have a good tag If  you need some advice on where to look feel free to ask me ,  One thing that can't be beat is footwork.
If its brown knock it down

Went up there this morning. Saw a single cow, a small bunch of ~12 with cows/calves and a couple spikes and a small group with ~5 cow/calves and one spike. No big bulls  :(

Spent a few weekends up in the Chase Mt/Robinette area but haven't seen much for elk (no big bulls). I had hoped the weather would have started to turn by now but no luck.

Anyone seeing anything in the Dayton area lately?
