The moose in 27 usually don't get active untill the last 2 weeks of rifle season, they are starting to rut pretty good right now, talk to as many ranchers as you can, when the bulls get to chasing cows they tear the hell out of everything so if a rancher gets a bull rutting on his place, chances are he will call you if you've contacted him. The best bulls usually hang up in the timber, there are alot of springs and ponds on thunderbolt mountain that you might catch a good bull in, you can usually call them right in while they are rutting unless they see you, right at the stateline on the westfork smithsfork is a good spot to catch a bull right at daylight or toward the end of the season, there is a strip of private land right before the stateline fence, but there is a mile of riverbottom you can hunt. There is a walkin area below the intake, later in the season alot of moose move down onto the ridge and you can normally glass them from the meeks cabin dam road. If you head out to aspen tunnels in the knight ridge hunter management unit, there are quite a few moose that direction, but I've never seen a real trophy out there. If your just after a cow moose, I'd just drive up gilbert creek through utah and back down the westfork and you should get a shot at one. Moose around here tend to run on the same clock as the deer, they move around right after daylight and right before dark, toward the end of the season you can catch them out at anytime of the day. Also toward the end of the season alot of moose move down in the quakie patches and sage flats between willow creek and horse creek. Hope this helps you out.
