[QUOTE="kcebcj, post: 844518, member: 10391"] With warm temps like you describe the bugs and flies are still active so the elk will react to that. In the mornings I would put myself on the shady east side and on a south facing slope of a good size canyon watching a north facing slope where there is water. They will be moving into timber to bed down for most of the day. If the terrain lays like you say the sun should not be much of an issue When you say drainage you are referring to one that is 3-4 miles long with side canyons of a mile or so right? Here on my ranch I have two or three such places and they work best as I described. I don't hunt elk in the afternoons or evenings. If the terrain is different then what I am thinking just take all this with a grain of salt and keep yourself in the shade as much as you can. Good luck. Just reread your post and you are archery hunting. Well crap the above won't work well unless you can shoot cross canyon!! [/QUOTE]
