I haven't hunted elk there, but I have hunted deer.
The best suggestion I can give you is to call Nevada'a Dept of Wildlife office and ask for the phone number of their local wildlife person. They can and do tell hunters where to find them under the conditions you'll be hunting them.
The only other thing I can suggest is look for lots of grass, particularly new growth, even if it's snowed and some of it has melted off. That and water. Nevada doesn't have alot of grass in most places due to lots of heavy grazing. But the Jarbridge Wilderness, up higher, will have some pretty good stands. E
