This was my first off trail hike ever using a compass and honestly, just a Google Maps top down satellite view of where to go. My car couldn't make it the entire way to the marked starting point, So I decided to start from where I had to park my car and continue on foot. Crossing the terrain heading south towards to the meadow was rough and steep. Watch your step for rocks and where long pants, the tall grasses in and around the meadow will tear up your legs. The meadow was mostly empty aside from a small group of elk and the field was quite litered with multiple elk bones, no full carcasses or skulls, but quite a few vertebrae. Overall, I'd say it's a neat spot to check out, there isn't really anything "there" to see, but from the hillside it's a nice view and a very quiet and remote area.
