Yes, the bears and wolves have done a number on the mountain elk herds, and made them somewhat quiet and very alert. There are still elk in all of those zones, and lots of pressure in any area you can walk to/is open enough to hunt effectively. Hiking and shooting a bow is no longer uncommon, nor is internet scouting.
Long and short of it is, you just have to go and put your skills against the mountain.
Be aware that the southern elk herds can and frequently do migrate in and out of the parks/BC.

Good point on the stats, and I plan to do exactly as you suggest in terms of just heading out and giving it my best crack!
