Both areas had plenty of elk moving through them. Saw about 200 elk this mornin in the river bottoms and another 100 or so on the bench on the other side.
Many elk came off Blacktail Butter early this morning. When I went out you could see the tracks crossing the road in the fresh snow from last night. Looked like a good size herd came across. This afternoon we saw 20-25 up on top, but hunters pushed them up higher and into the timber and that is all she wrote.
I am thinking the ones on the river bottom will make therir way to the butte tonigh so I will head their in the morning. I will head to the south side and hope to catch them on their way to the refuge.
Talked to some other hunters tonight that saw a bunch of elk this morning on the hay fields, but were not able to get shots. It seems they were just inside the safe zone.
