The title is supposed to be an eye-catcher and is not totally related to the questions.
#1 We are aware of an area that bulls tend to hide in...not real rocket science, it is about 2 miles from a road and the slopes are 45-60 degrees, rough and in an area of the honey-hole that is not normally hunted. My partner is of the opinion that we would not be likely to find cows in that area, as it is a bull hide-out...what U tink?
#2 We hunted today and a front blew in. The wind was howling in the area that we were hunting (about 5 miles from the location in #1 and when were were checked, on Saturday, the Warden said that it was one of the better areas in the unit). It was real disagreeable in the area. When we got in there I knew that it was waste of time (or at least extremely futile, due to the wind) to hunt in the area. I stayed in there before dawn till dusk and I didn't see anything. On the way out, in the dark, I scared at least 2 of something and they ran bashing through the brush. I'd already identified the area (lower down, on the way out) as being good for deer. My question...in a windy situation such as this one, will elk will just plain tuck in and wait it out, or go to a lower level where the wind is not as bad...also it was about 55-65 degrees in the area today.
