[QUOTE="73driver, post: 1718816, member: 36473"] My first bull was was in a draw bellow my overnight camp. It was a spike tag and I could hear the herd bull bugle the whole night. I could swear they were 300 yards bellow me. At first light I snuck out of my tent sat at edge of trees and took my spike as they climbed up out of aspen grove headed to dark timber on the N slopes. I know I hit the young bull at least a couple times but he was still walking as he descended back into the aspens. As I waited the big bull a 6X6 and his cows came up out of the trees just below where I was waiting. So for this herd my camping was no issue. Bear in mind no fire, just a place to sleep and no food prep of any kind. I backpacked in and camped this area several more times for deer and the elk did not seem to mind. Maybe be cautious and camp I draw away from where you expect your elk to be. [/QUOTE]
