[QUOTE="Donneric, post: 2519110, member: 116865"] [I]Been in the Bush for many a Hunt. Foremost is water. And stay away from tall dead trees. Tempting for firewood but in high winds very dangerous. Cottonwood and older aspen groves even alive are potentially dangerous. I Always prefer a south exposure for sunny afternoon warming to dry things out. Sometimes you can find spring seeps higher up. Excellent camp locations as for elk anyways because glassing is highly advantageous and you might be halfway to the top. I always prefer a high camp for elk. I tent hunted a lot for Kodaik blacktail. They are spread everywhere elevation wise. A beach camp is more enjoyable and mountains are only about 3000’ so the climb not so bad and you can glass from lower down easily which isn’t the same so much for elk. But again afternoon sun always a priority if you can’t have it all day. I don’t get carried away with thermals really unless the black timber is very limited and that’s where the elk are bedding down early bow season. Hope this was what you were angling for.[/I] [/QUOTE]
