So before last year I always ended up with people who loved to road hunt. So my experience level for hunting is very low.

Needless to say I got a few friends out last year and we did Area 54 in Gunnison (due to messing up group draw, kills ya every time). We were the only ones who saw anything and that terrain has to be some of the toughest I've hiked through since survival school, we ended up in a massive blizzard and came home about 3 hours before they closed Monarch pass.

My main question was answered by Mtn Man, thanks! But I still have others when it comes to mainly 2nd season. I don't expect calls to work, but what about scent sprays, dips, or anything like that?

Appreciate the help guys. I just want the best possible experience. I'm also the only one with a cow tag so it's gonna be an interesting few days.
