It's beautiful up there. Ranges can get long in a lot of areas, and it's harder to get close in public areas. A rangefinder and an accurate long range load are key. Drops and retained energy are a lot different at 10,000 feet, but if you know your muzzle velocity and BC, most ballistic calculators will get the drop right if you enter the conditions.
Get out to Donaldsonville and get some practice in the F Class type matches at 600 yards. Then make sure you can quickly get into a field position and get the same kind of accuracy.
If you can't get the long range shooting thing down, then make sure you hunt a zone and plan your hunt around getting close in the timber (your best chance at a close shot on public land).
