Anyone here spent time on the manti during the rut?

Are they talking or call shy from all the pressure of the previous archery spike hunt?

I've hunted the North West end during the archery hunt once but haven't spent any time south of scofield. It seems like the south side may have more glassing opportunity and possibly less sheep. For this hunt we're looking for any mature elk and a good experience since this will be my sons first elk hunt. I figure a combination of hunting styles will keep him from getting too worn down over the hunt. Glassing/spot and stalk, still hunting and trail ambush.

Other than private lands are there any areas to avoid (ie. too much livestock, too many hikers, not enough elk)?
 
When I had the LE archery bull tag in 2013 they started going off on September 2nd or 3rd and I killed my bull on September 6th. I has hunting the southern part of the unit.
 
Great tag, good luck.

I’ve heard some talking. There were a fair amount of sheep.

Both on skyline between the roads out of spring city to ephraim.
 
headed in tomorrow to the north end initially. hopefully this recent wet weather will get them more active during the day and we'll see some daytime rut activity.
