Headed to GMU 45 for the last 2 weeks of September for an archery elk hunt and was wondering if anyone had any insight on the area, Holy Cross Wilderness in particular? We are packing horses for a drop camp to hopefully get deep and away from hunters, hikers, ect. Going with 2 others and we have done 2 other Idaho elk hunts together so we are not afraid of hiking. Any idea on how the elk act this time of year? We will be overlapping seasons with muzzleloader so is there a change in rut patterns even if we are a ways back there? Are the elk abnormally vocal that time? A lot of hunters in that area? Was hoping to get in on the north side.......good idea or no? Not trying to get hunting spots from anyone, just trying to make sure I pack an elk out and I didn't buy a $600 out of state tag for a hiking trip...anything helps!
