I also should have mentioned benches as excellent areas toward the top of ridges to find bedded elk. Remember, in colder temperatures you can easily find them on southern and western exposures also.
What do you mean by a bench? Just a generally flat area? For example, as a ridge goes upwards, maybe it levels out and spreads out a bit at one point (almost like someone cut out a notch on the rib of the mountain with a big knife), and then continues to be narrow and slope more steeply upwards on the other end of the bench? Is that what you mean?
