I just spent three days on the hill and only saw one pair of browns picked up and most still packing. Another week and things will pick up.

I've seen some that have dropped and some that are still packing. I have video from last week of a few bulls knocking each other around. Guessing that means their horns are still solid. I'd say grab the binos, and watch them every chance you can. Shouldn't be long. But then again, last year a lot of elk around here went until mid April.
