Hey everyone, im planning a trip to invermere next weekend with the wife and would like to take her out and show her some elk, maybe get a few pictures. Are the big groups still hanging out down low in the grasslands and fields? or have they started to work their way back up into the hills yet? when do they typicaly begin to disappear from down low? would It be any better to travel a bit further south down around skookumchuk? thanks!

We are down by Jaffary and there is Elk all over even bulls still packing bone. you should see lots of Elk Deer and the odd bear.

Saw at least 500+ on the winter range near Wasa yesterday and another massive group near TaTa creek. Take the road out to whitetail lake just north of Canal Flats usually lots up that way.
