Thanks guys, that is some great help.

Gselkhunter, when I said that I would acclimate at 7500 to 8000, I was thinking about staying in a nearby town for a night (aspen???) before I headed up into the mountains. I don't know for sure how my body will take going straight to 9500'. I was considering taking Altitude Advantage (Wilderness Athlete) or possibly trying to get a prescription of Diamox from a doctor. Who knows, maybe 9000-9500 ft. won't bother me that much and I would be able to stay at that elevation for a day before heading up to 10000+. Also, thanks for the tips on where to find elk. I kind of figured that we were going to have to hunt high, but I will try and remember to look for the dark timber along a creek bottom.

Also, I didn't realize that an OTC tag is good for any unit. I thought that they were unit specific. That is pretty cool and might have to start scouting out unit 43 or others that are nearby.

Spuddog, I have been looking at those migration maps. They are pretty cool.

Thanks again everyone, I trully appreciate it.
