I meant it from the standpoint of he may feel uncomfortable in an area that is being heavily hunted. And as a minimum should wear the same hunter's orange that is required of the hunters at the time.

Some people may be very turned off or not feel safe camping and backcountry backpacking during an active hunting season when people are taking shots across canyons at elk, etc...

Without a doubt do this.

I love camping in the rockies during rut. Waking up to elk bugle in the distance is pretty nice.

Most of the backcountry elk hunters I have met are really polite to hikers. They even invited me to a meal and beer once. Just be respectful to them and they will reciprocate 99% of the time.

And they normally have beer and good food
