I moved to NW Colorado in April and have only hunted elk one time before in NM. I have been hunting on an OTC archery tag the last couple of days here but have no look in even finding elk. I have hunted from 10500ft down to 8000ft. I don't feel confident enough to do a solo backcountry hunt so for the time being I am limited to day hunts. If elk are bugling (which I haven't heard any yet) I feel confident I know what to do but what do I do when they aren't talking. I know you should do a lot of glassing but what if you are hunting places that are not open enough to glass? I also assume the further from the road the better and I do think that is some of my problem. I have been about a 1-1.5 miles of the road but assume I should be further. It is hard to get the motivation to walk way out there when I have no idea what to do once I get their. I feel confident in my hunting skills having killed P&Y whitetails in Georgia-which isn't easy to do-but have been humbled by this new style of hunting. Any help would go a long way.
Thanks
