I know someone who has taken 7 already on his trapline. He pulled them til deer and elk hunts are over, no one likes have high dollar gear stolen by fellow "sportsmen".
You can quiz the biologists on the winter areas for the herds....expect bulls and moose to be above these areas and expect wolves to hammer them.
I remember riding my sled into rainy creek off i90 and seeing over 30 elk carcasses just on the road....but that's in January/February.
Stop by the rose lake gas station and peek at the wall of fame. There's some obvious stars.
Any major saddle in the cda or joe is a good spot to begin looking. Not the ones everyone rides a sxs to....but look for the ones that are less traveled to complete remote.....and take some coyote urine.
I have taken the course. Its pretty good and Tom is very open to answering questions you may have during or after the course.I will. I just found out about them yesterday. I love it, definitely joining. I’ve checked out Stuck N Rut, do you know anyone who’s ever taken their course?

Last weekend a report of a pack and a single were all over Grizzly mountain up the cda river…get up high an hr or two before light and listen…there is decent snow above 4500 ft for evidence of movement…good luck
Cheaper option: Go to the butcher and get around five gallons worth of blood, offal, and otherwise smelly inedible stuff. Take a five gallon bucket, fill with offal/blood mixture. Using a dowel and some cordage, suspend an eye bolt in the mixture to where the shank is submerged but the eye is above "water" line. Freeze the bucket. You now have a difficult to eat but very attractive bait you can chain to an object, or even suspend. A smart man gets a super long eye bolt and bends the shank 90 degrees so it acts like a barb and works as a better anchor.From MN Here, land of 10,000 Wolves which our Dem Governor seem to ignore or give our DNR the right to Manage them now.....so moving on!
If you want to sit and Hunt them and watch Downwind, take a Frozen Turkey and set it in an open area you can scope, then take a 4'x4' piece of plywood and set it directly on top of the Turkey Centered, Then place the biggest rock you or you and a Buddy can center on top of the plywood. After a few days they will smell the Turkey and come for it, the key is to have the plywood big enough as they try to dig and get at the Turkey but they can't reach it due to the weight of the Rock and Plywood length. Works great for Yotes too..
They will keep coming back for the Turkey and will stay in the areas longer too. Of course be as scent free as possible when doing this. If you trap, place the traps where they will try to dig under the Plywood.

I met a gentleman last winter rolling through town with a sxs with tracks on a trailer. He told me that f&g is required to give out coordinates of collared predators if requested. He was fully outfitted in thermal/NV and was heading into the high country for a week on his buggy to chase collar coordinates. This was in Feb. Never heard from him again but that guy had it down to a science. Might be worth looking into.
Montana will not give out collar information. Ie coordinates. Atleast up to end of season last year. Don't know about idahoInterested in Montana and Idaho both as well about the collar information.
It’s also not legal in Idaho to bait wolves except for trappingThat is genius!
