Thanks Mike,
I kind of figured as much. But did wander if there was something that the Elk really go nuts over i.e. Not a cover but maybe an attractant.
Yes we're heading back to similar country next month, a little further south this time.
We drew block 19 (Charles/Caswell sound: For the benfit of someone who may have been there.) Steep and coastal. Can't wait, we go down on 22nd March for 8-10 days, four of us. (A chopper load.) Hoping we get a bugle like last year. In NZ the hunting pressure is right off, as there is no commercial harvest. (Price of venison is very low.), as a consequence the numbers are building and animals are venturing out into the open a bit more.
Will post pictures etc
