I have found them to be frustrating in how long they take to come in to calls, seems like when I give up on a spot, I should have waited another minute.
Scouting is key, I hunt the same herds every year, they don’t move around as much as RM elk, if you find them (during season) they will usually be somewhere close every season.
If you “bump” them, they seem to run a short ways, them stop to see if you are dumb enough to try and follow them, instead of running into the next county.
I also have noticed that if you pay attention to the sword ferns you will see that they eat the tops off, when in an area where it looks like someone has been through there with a hedge trimmer and all the top 6″ are missing, you are in a good spot.
