This is near where we saw the big elk we stalked. This is what you are looking for, an open meadow above timberline where they will feed and then melt back into dark timber soon after daylight. By the way, that saddle is the continental divide and the border of our unit. It was snow up high and rain down low. Be prepared for all kinds of weather.

My biggest failure equipment wise was shoes that would keep my feet dry.
This is that same meadow up close. Chest high brush was wet and the meadow was tundra bog. Last day I wore hip waders and really liked the protection they gave. Wouldn't work for the climb up but once out of the rocks into the meadow it was perfect.
