Well that's a loaded question. Depends, I am always scouting weather it be driving home from work looking out the window, or talking to locals at the coffee shop. But, if I need to get a good close up look at a place I treat it the same as if I was hunting.
Just hiking clothing. I am just enjoying the mountains... Nope no sheep anywhere guys. This would not be a good spot to scout for sheep cause there are none there. If you get my drift.
To me showing up to scout an area in full camo and a truck covered in decals draws attention. You may see a few more animals in full camo or get closer but when scouting i let my spotting scope do the work and my trail cams.
