Default early season 344

planning a trip next fall to hunt elk in 344, from what i have read and researched it can be quite the place to go for elk...lots of hunters. In saying that how is the bow season there as far as hunters go? is it less pressured and more guys wait for rifle to open up? we will be on foot and plan on getting as far back off the roads and trails as possible. just looking for insight from guys that have done this hunt before and what to expect? grizzlies,moose,bugs... i will be down there this summer hopefully to check a few spots and try and figure out a plan so i have some sort of an idea come September 1st . anything helps! look forward to hearing some stories!

thanks guys!

Worked a lot way all over willow and peppers lake and pretty much every road up there put some miles on your poots you will be sure get an elk.
