Walden itself is a flat plain surrounded by BLM land. If you're hunting elk there are you thinking late season? They won't be "down" yet during archery or rifle 1.

Otherwise, tell us which GMU you're thinking. I hunted Rahwah once, unit 7 (just East of Walden) and it was beautiful but challenging. That year was hot and dry very late into the seasons and the elk just didn't want to come down. Once nice thing is it's not quite the "sea of orange" other areas are... but access is challenging and you have to be prepared to really work your way in...
