P.S How long does it normally take for a hit on a newly baited site. for example... can i set up first thing in the am, then wait in the stand that same day?
Anywhere in between Edmonton and Calgary then head West towards the mountains should get you close.

As for wait times, If your going to set up bait, I would give it a week at least to establish itself. You could hunt over it that day and hope to see something, but then you had better use some really stinky baits. Or be near a game trail that bears are already using.

Good luck
