I just saw your message, snow is very different from year to year from what I had gathered. Last year was record snowfall in UT and I saw a hunt in 21 that was in the 60's- HUNTNNW

Will a mother return to a bedded fawn?
how fawns and calves survive. First 2 weeks of life fawns spend very little time moving with mom, if they did they would end up dead as they are not fast enough to out run predators yet -

I did learn if you are on the fence on a bull or think Ill shoot him tomorrow dont lol. I learned that almost every bull I saw one day I never turned up again. It was like a revolving door of bulls every day...new ones every morning. You could glass from the same spot every day and see new elk- HUNTNNW

I shot my bull just off the top of big ridge trail above the dairy fork road. Lotta elk in there too. I hiked up to the top to see the other side as there was not really any access in there due to snow and didnt see any elk in there, but lots of tracks.- HUNTNNW

If you follow the Dairy fork you will see "Side canyon" a intersection in the road it turns into 0070 road or Lake fork road. That road is gated and nobody walked it. If you look at map there above that gated road is " Sky high trail" you need a sxs or atv to get up there, but its well worth...- HUNTNNW

Its a hard hunt to plan for as I was told some years you can drive the skyline on late hunt and others you cannot. There was 25" 2 mi up skyline on my hunt. I saw a hunt in 2020 where it was in the 60's on the late hunt- HUNTNNW

I stayed in Helper and ventured some west of there and saw some elk, but there was too many guys glassing and seemed like to many roads. I ended up spending 90% of my hunt on 1 road as I saw over 53 bulls and was able to find a area that required some hiking to get to elk and not a soul was...- HUNTNNW
