First let me say I'm kind of a new hunter. I hunted last year (deer for the first time since i was 17, I'm now in mid forties)
my Sons 16 and 10 will be hunting for the first time in their lifes this Season. We drew Cow Elk hunt is unit 39-1 so myself, my boys and my GF will be hunting Elk for the first time. and for my boys will also be their first deer hunt as well. i really want to make this a memory making experience for us. We did a scout trip last weekend From Idaho City clear to Atlanta and then down the N fork of boise around Arrow rock to Lucky peak. We saw no Deer or Elk and some a few tracks. now granted we didn't get out everywhere to look ( will be doing more of that up to hunting season starting 10/5) We did see a young Cow moose which was awesome. So my question is in trying to make a memory for these boys and i are there any recommends of where to take them to best find Elk? As they are in School they will be limited to weekend hunts and the first weekend will be it seems the best chance as open rifle will not open until 10/10. there are alot of places in that unit. So if anyone has suggstions please share or PM me i would be grateful to get these boys hooked on this like I am.
Thanks
James
