Has anyone done this hunt? Just curious what to expect for expectations, weather, terrain etc.

Very few elk is what to expect.
Lots of sage and cedars....

yea. once i figure out how to use this new mm format. But it was a fun hunt. Fogged in pretty bad for first couple days. Due to snowfall we could see where the herds had been moving and were able to cut them off on the morning of day 3. 200 yard shot x2 and she ran maybe 10 yards. Had been eating corn and is the best tasting meat ive had in a long time. pictures to follow once i figure this out.
