Wind is your friend. IF you walk into the wind, chances are the moose, if it is bedded, will be facing you. Reason is, the wind allows him to smell what is behind him and he can watch what is in front of him. Thus, you should walk slowly and deliberately.

Cut a track and follow it if you can. Slowly. I mean 5 minutes for every 50ft or so. Your sight picture changes alot as you walk so take your time. No sense walking thru the bush like a madman....

Best of Luck. I know this works (done it for about 15 moose so far)
