Default Bovine cattle are in my Elk area!!!

Been hunting this area of S.E. Wyoming for Elk and deer for years and have had better than average success year in and year out. But this year the Nat'l Forrest folks let a rancher bring in cattle to graze all summer. They are required to have them out by the end of September. But all of Sep. is archery here and I like to spend as much time in the woods as I can.
But every time I went out, the bovines were there and the Elk/Deer were NOT!! Ruined more than one hunt.
So, What does a guy do to overcome the onslaught of cattle and evacuation of big game? Talked to the Game Warden for that area and he assured me they haven't left the country, just the immediate area.
What experience have any of you had in woods with fresh cow pies?! What do you do about it?
