Planning for late Aug bow hunt and into the rifle opener.
Torn between making my way into the elk travel and bedding area each morning or throw together a spike camp.
Our cabin quarter hugs crown land, it's a mile to the start of crown from the cabin and aprx another 2-3 miles of cutlines to the furthest area we would hunt.
We have spent a few weeks now clearing deadfall off the older cutlines for ATV travel but mostly for easy hauling out game if we were successful.
Another option besides walking our butts off in the dark early morning is quadding in an hr before sunrise but you never know how close to you the elk are. One other concern with a camp is you could be moving the elk back further too just with your presence.

So would you set up a spike camp only 3-4 miles back or hoof it in every morning ?
BTW, I'm 54 yrs old, ha.
