E-Scouting for PRESSURED ELK (Pt. 1 Find YOUR SPOT)

This is Part 1 of a three part series I am doing on e-scouting for heavily hunted elk. I am talking about over-the-counter areas, low point draw areas, wilderness, remote USFS... TOUGH hunting. These elk are typically less constrained by habitat and more constrained by hunting pressure. For generations they have been hunted hard and their habits during hunting season reflect that.

In Part 1 I cover how to pick a unit and a sub-area of a unit to hunt. This includes out-of-the-box due diligence tips, considering how you are going to hunt relative to the area's topography, private and public land percentages and elevation grade as it relates to snow accumulations moving elk out of the high country. This video covers big picture ideas.

Part 2 - Understanding bands of pressure around trail systems and access points. Locating and routing to glassing points.
