Default RE: Help with elk??

Tips from me are to hunt high if the weather is warm. The high altitude will kick us flat landers in the butt. When you get at 11,000 or more be prepared for altitude sickness, headaches, and fatigue. Drink a lot of water and get a good water filtration system for the streams.You should arrive at the area a minimum of one week before the hunt to help get acclimated. Work out on stairs or climbing too. Elk hunting on foot is the most demanding thing I have ever done. A good GPS system is a plus too. If you are packing in go as light as possible.
