Rookie,
I haven't hunted there recently but I have heard others say their honey holes didn't produce this last year. It may have been the weather, the food supply or hunting pressure. I usally see the most elk when I am the fartherest from a road but this past year they seemed to be in the oak brush at lower elevations. This was during muzzle loader season and along well traveled gravel roads. I like to put on a backpack and try to get away from everyone but I may have to change my habits if the elk change theirs. Good Luck
James
