Try around the 2500 line.  There always seem to be a few elk hanging out in that area between the road and the river.

Most of the elk are in the mudflow.  If you get to a spot where you can see it, it would be worth it to stop and look.  Otherwise follow the 2500, most of the fresh sign we saw was around the Green river.  Just make sure you hunt the Margaret side of the Green.

Are you going to have access, and if so do you know what gates? When I had my bull tag in '07 I was olnly allowed in the 2900 gate. Was a pain since I camped at the 1900, and planned on the 1900 or 2500 being open. Was a long run each morning to get where I wanted to be. A cow shouldn't be too big of a problem though. The 2500 would be a good starting point like said earlier. Lots of elk along the river(Green) just make sure you stay south of it :)

With a magic tag like the Margret no scouting is needed, right?

Found out the hard way with my archery tag that is not really true anymore.

Should be much easier in January with a rifle.
Here's what I would do: Drive. Eventually see cow. Shoot cow.

Some of the area near the mudflow is in the Margret btw.

Most gates were open on the 15th Dec. Last day of the archery season in there.

I hunt in a unit by the Margaret. I found if they aren't in the clear cuts they are usually in the the timber or reprod. Good luck see you at work in a week.

Margaret doesn't have more than a couple recent cuts. And they draw most of the pressure.

Then they should be in the timber or reprod.
