I hunted this area a number of times in the '80's and '90's for deer and for elk. I spent nearly all my time in the eastern side of 11 but I know hunters that swear by all parts of the area. If you have cow permits you'll be almost assured of success. I can't recall ever seeing a really huge bull here but I consider any mature bull a nice trophy and there certainly are some of them around. It is a relatively small area and there are a good number of hunters compressed together - opening weekend will be especially crazy. Be alert for hunters spooking elk to you. Don't be too hung up on trying to find a remote spot where noone else has been because there aren't many spots like that in this area. I would poke around Foote Creek on the east side of the main Forest Service road that bisects the area. Good luck!
