This is my first real year of elk hunting and when hunting areas that are steep rocky scree should I be looking in the timbered valleys or up on the ridges? It seems like in most places ridges are the most places ridges are the places to be but with it being so rocky does that put elk lower or are they in basins of high alpine lakes? It seems like that there wouldn’t be enough food for large population of elk in this area but the observed population is pretty high? Good luck to all in their hunts this year
