[QUOTE="ChewMT, post: 1328933, member: 73130"] I've never hunted the Little Belts but most likely will at some point this year since I moved to Helena. But I do almost always camp near where I'm hunting. The main reason being that the last hour of daylight is your best time to glass and spot elk for the next day. If you aren't glassing till the very end of the day you're doing yourself a disservice. With that being said I'm not a fan of spike camps, it keeps you limited to one area generally. If I spend a day in an area and don't see anything I pack up that evening and try somewhere else. Last year it took me 20 days of hunting to get my bull. I hunted all around Dillon to the southern edge on the Idaho border and over towards Big Sky. Not sure if that helps but hunting public land even in Montana can be quite a chore some years. [/QUOTE]
