[QUOTE="MMERSS, post: 973929, member: 63748"] Nothing wrong with layered Gore-Tex. That’s what I wear in the mountains or for that matter also on the plains. Dress as you would sitting in a NC tree stand with temps from 10 to 50 with or without rain or snow then having to walk back to your truck or another tree stand two to five miles uphill. Shooting distance from ridge to meadow or meadow to meadow across canyon can be long. If possible, try not to limit what range or conditions you will be making shots unless those distances are near your comfort and condition level. Talk with your outfitter on what to expect. Practice and create drop tables out to 500 yards or longer if you have the experience and equipment. Several of my work associates have been hunting the Bob for decades. Anymore they tend to see more wolf than elk and opportunities for an elk are slim compared to 10 years past. Maximize your harvest potential by practicing shots longer than 200 yards however be aware of your limits with both range and equipment. Buy a wolf tag! Good luck on your hunt. The Bob is beautiful country. [/QUOTE]
