The guy that used to run Pine Mtn Settlement School said the elk would disappear for months and then a herd would just pop up.

If this was 20 years ago I could put you on them most likely. However, the areas I use to frequent no longer have any/many and I don't go looking for them anymore. The Jenny Wiley elk viewing may be the best opportunity. The Big Sandy airport area near the Floyd/Martin Co. line should still have some around to see.

Very easy.

Go up to the federal prison on the Martin/Floyd border when the sun starts going down. Drive out to the little airport. You will see them in multiple places and may even be able to park within 10 feet of them.
