I’ve seen really good bucks on NF but nothing to write home about in the wilderness.

If you stay away from the trails it can get lonely fast. One thing i would caution against is thinking this hunt is one that you are going to see a lot of elk on. The potential for some quality is there, but you had better make your encounters count.

I have hunted a few spots on the Southwest side of that mountain where the water was literally running underneath of your feet but you couldn't see it, you could hear it and see it through tangles of roots on big old growth trees but that was it, very cool area! Just get away from the roads, trails, and other people.
