Doing some e scouting and found a spot to glass at about 7500 ft. The area that I’m looking at in Wyoming peaks out at about 8500.
I believe the elk will be feeding in pastures below me at 5000 ft or at a meadow around 6500-7000 ft. Do I want to be above them at first light? Won’t the thermals be blowing down in the morning until 9-10? The meadow won’t be visible glassing up hill.
Or Do I glass from the truck until after first light and then make my way up the mountain if they are not down low while the thermals are still blowing down?
I could be completely wrong about the feeding area, but it’s a limited tag HMA so my guess is that the elk are feeding on some of this private land at some point and hence the reason for the HMA?
