"Sweet Eastman lists this as a sleeper area. It's outside grizzly country too."
A word of caution - if an area has been listed more than a year or two on Eastman's, Hunting Fool, etc., it is likely of considerably less quality than before they "discovered" it. Happened to my favorite area. The extreme pressure from avid, extreme hunters has brought the trophy quality down, and even the general hunting quality down. No area can stand long-term extreme pressure for long.
One thing about the Big Horns, a lot of elk move out early to private lands where you cannot get access. You can see nice bulls, but not get to them. Perhaps it is less bad near Buffalo than Sheridan. Be sure to do your homework.
The Black Hills has bulls that are not slouches, but you need access to private as well as National Forest due to the ownership patchwork. Elk can move so far in short time periods, what you see one day is not what you necessarily get the next. Scouting is best done during the same time period/month/season you plan to hunt. Good luck.
