I know it is a long shot but I'm hoping to find some Montana hunters on here that can help me out. Yes I am from California but am from the northern non-communist part of California. I have hunted elk in Idaho for the last 30 years but this year I did not get a tag. Idaho sucks for out of state folks since they went to their special draw. Any way, I have a Montana general elk tag and am looking to go near the Hamilton area as I have a friend that has a place for me to park my trailer there. I will be going for Archery elk than back in October if I don't find a bull during the archery season. Any advice or areas would be greatly appreciated. Not asking for a secret spot or anything just someplace where a hard working hunter might see some elk. Also I pack. I don't use horses or other livestock and don't hunt off of an atv from the road. Thanks in advance.
