A buddy of mine and I are pondering doing a drop camp in the Bob Marshall Wilderness area for the early season rifle hunt during the rut. Have any of you guys had the pleasure of hunting this area, I have been studying maps, books, and reading some articles, sounds like steep country with thick timber shots averaging between 10-50 yards in thick timber, again this is all from stuff I have read, anyone with experience in the area that could chime in would be appreciated.
We did a trip like this two years ago in the Absaroka Beartooth Wilderness (about 12 miles north of Yellowstone) Beautiful country, steep also, but it had more open areas too where you could glass alot of country from a high vantage point. Ended up getting my bull on opening day....the only elk we saw on the whole trip. Awesome experience though...
Here are some pics from that trip...
