    Elk Feeding Habits

    Yeah, that's a gross generalization, and in many cases, BS... Where - in general - will you be hunting? ...in many "high country" areas, elk will bed LOWER than where they feed. ...and I'll second the statements regarding the book. ...single best written resource for elk ever written.
