The Elk will be back away from any roads or vehicle trails. A mountain bike is a good way to travel if you are going to hunt inside the park. It allows you to get back to the deep heavily forested ravines where the Elk hang out during the day. There are lots of fire roads to bike that you aren't allowed to go on with a vehicle.

The Elk will move into and out of cover mostly in the dark. Seeing one out in the open during legal shooting light is not real common by the second hunt or even the second day of the first hunt. Intercepting them a mile back from where they are feeding, as they head into bed is a lot more effective than trying to catch them in the open.

If you can figure out where they are feeding, track back to where they are traveling and set up a mile or two back in so it is good light by the time they get to where you are.
