    Realistic Range Vortex 50 vs. 65

    I will be alpine mule deer hunting this year. Anyone have thoughts on what is the realistic range for deciphering a big mule deer from a small mule deer with the Vortex razor spotters? The 50mm vs. the 65mm. The 50mm is nearly half the weight and is where I am leaning.

    Elk move up in the morning and down in the evening?

    I have heard from multiple people on podcasts, elk101 etc. that the general rule is elk move up in the morning and down in the evening. I think this is typically tied to thermals. Is this true in high alpine basins? In my limited experience I have seen elk that move up to the open high grass...
