I always look for stand sites with the best view downwind and assume that most yotes will circle downwind(much like a whitetail)to confirm with it's nose what it's hearing.My main concern is usually my approach.I like to walk to a stand either directly with or into the wind to create the narrowest possible scent cone rather than a crosswind that floods the downwind quadrant with human scent.Every situation is different so there can be no set rules and in the end terrain and obstacles dictate the setup.Alot of my hunts are in "Big woods",clearcuts,bogs etc. where a dog could come from any direction,so trying to guess it's approach is often near impossible,which is why I would rather have my scent cone covering only a few degrees of the compass instead of 90Degrees or more from a crosswind approach.I also use Rabbit cover scent often,the stuff used to train Beagles,spray it on pantlegs and arms prior to walking in and mist the air when calling in hopes of masking or overcoming any human scent.I am positive it has helped at times,and if nothing else it helps with the Oh so Important Confidence Factor that can make or break a stand.
