Elk will tolerate a lot of snow, especially if it means avoiding the pressure of hunters. Let your glass do the walking, you will find elk. The Caloric intake is big, the better the feed and easier to access the better your chances. Good luck!
This can be verified with the Type 6 tags that were used for many years in the elk areas in Region G/H. Those tag numbers have dropped some, but it was an intentional effort to reduce a population that was competing with mule deer in every part of their range.
Really depends, for summer scouting I try to stay out of the bucky habitat as best I possibly can. Which means using the spotter to really pick them apart. Its hard though, some places you have to glass in tight, not other option.
Congrats on your bull, looks like a very nice bull to me!
The judging portion has happened to just about everyone. The truth of the matter is that unless you get to spend a lot of time measuring dead bulls they are REALLY tough to judge on the hoof. A lot of guys rarely get to spend time...

Years ago I was a full time youth pastor. I started taking notes on the parenting styles and behaviors that churned out good kids. Teaching them how to use money as a tool rather than simply chasing it to have it/spend it was a big one. Money not owning us but rather us telling it what to do...
My wife's parents had a surprise when when she was a Freshman in college. She had been the youngest until then, she teases them about being a middle child now LOL.
I can do all kinds of fun stories related to this. When you have 4, two of them by accident you hear every joke in the book on "You know where they come from right?"
I started answering the old ladies at church and the grocery store with, "Sure do and it was a LOT of fun making that accident!"...
Once you have three it has turned into a zone defense where you are outnumbered no matter what. So...honestly other than the cost of diapers and food, you really don't notice it. Especially if you get luck and put enough time between child number one and number 4, number 1 takes care of number 4...
