My son and I were lucky to draw this year for 10, early rifle. So the diet and work out starts in earnest. I'm going up there Aug. 10-14th to scout, glass, fish. I have some questions that I hope some of you can answer, I'm focusing on areas between Long Canyon and Liberty/Favre Lake up high..here it goes:
1. What's the wx like between 8 and 10k ft during Aug. and Oct?
2. Is it safe to leave a vehicle parked at TH for 3 or 4 nights? If not, is there a service or person who can keep car and drop/pu at a TH?
3. What are bucks focusing on during early Oct, are they on the move?
4. Will they be on the N, S, E side of hills for food, rest?
5. What is best technique for hunting up high, stay put and glass or move and glass?
6. Should/can I build a camp fire at night with our scaring off bucks, probably not much wood up there?
7. How many C.I back pack is good for 5 nights? How many lbs is min. max?
8. What about water up high above lakes? Advice?
9. What am I missing or need to know for success? Thanks, Matt
