I'm thinking about making a trip up there this weekend. How was it? My old man said it was good hunting but that's back years ago now.
Years back used to be ok in there but to many ATV riding in the Apline has ruined the area, was always better early Sept, never any luck in there past the end of Sept.
7mm PRC soon to be the most popular cartridge in North America
Hunted it often years ago ....
Busy spot now.
I went there on Oct 26-30. Below is map of where I poked around. I camped at the site right after 1st bridge at km19, nice spot, by the river. Weekend was definitely a lot more people. Also, two or there vehicles in No Motorized Vehicle Zone, which kind of very annoying. For myself, I did not see any bucks. Saw a lot of signs closer to the top of the hills. In three spots, very fresh - but no luck for me. Also, I did not have a spotting scope, so my ability to glass hills across was limited.
Overall, I enjoyed it, even though no score.
All I am going to say is you drove past the deer in my opinion and I hunted timber bucks where spotter is no good
best spots I found in that area are really easy to drive past and every buck was dragged up hill
I too have been hunting the same roads you are hunting this season and I actually was hunting the same spots the same days I was parked down the road from you, assuming you were in the darker truck with camper? Parked Just before where you hiked up the yellow line.
Anyways lots of action up there i camped in that blizzard on Wednesday night it was howling all night but my hammock rocked me to sleep. Then hunted around the hills for a while a billion grouse, lots of sign just not right spot right time, next year for that area for me, but I'm confident on a big one from the pasayten river
Did you see the wolf tracks a duo of dogs for 5km in the sand
I didn't seal the deal there in 8-4 this season for deer moose elk, heading to kamloops now for a week to do that
have seen wildlife all season down there, good predator population heading back dec for cats and a camp out.
Saw bears everytrip I made this year
it was annoying yes every trip I made this year there had been previous 4x4 tracks in motor closure area days prior to me being there
