Area 6 Bull Elk Rifle Hunt

Hey All,

A buddy of mine drew this tag. He is brand new to hunting, and I am somewhat new with only two years of experience under the belt.

Both of those years have been in area 6, so I have a decent idea of areas to look in. The tag is October 22-November 5. Has anyone had this tag before? What sort of terrain will the bulls be hanging out in? Not asking for GPS coordinates or anything, just a general idea of where to focus the scouting.

Also, if anyone has some pictures of bulls taken from this area, I'd appreciate knowing what's out there. What size of bull can he hope for, and what should we pass on? Given both of our inexperience, it's likely we'll take the first mature bull we can.

I'm willing to trade what information I have on the area. I have taken an early cow, and was one of the lucky few who managed to fill my cow elk/deer combo tags last year, so feel free to hit me up.
 
350 bulls are not uncommon but 300 is more likely. The pressure will be high in the area mostly road hunters, get off the beaten path. Glass hard and you should have no problem finding elk. Use your past experience in the area then add new roads. Don't get cought up on score just have a good time. Pm me and I'll give you some more info.
 
Just wanted to say thanks to all who helped. I had a great experience out there with my buddy, even got him a shot at a bull, but were unable to get it done.
