I have a 72-75 late cow tag and was unable to scout earlier this fall due to some health issues with my wife. I am hoping to go over mid month. I am an experienced elk hunter and I am healthy and can hike but will be by myself don't want to over do it. I am looking for some basic starting...

I am glad to see that some feeding was going on. Still sad to see all the deaths.

Does anybody have an idea on how much snow fell on the No Slope. Do you think it pushed any elk down?
