    Not the "best" area of the WKs for Grizzlies, fair access by 4x4s and ATVs, plus boots and pack, steep, wet, rugged and bushy.

    I know the area well, but, have relatives hunting in the area, so, keep quiet about specifics.

    The one issue if you are drawn would be the considerable antipathy to Grizzly hunting by many residents and they have, although mostly "draft dodgers" and their hippy spawn, caused a LOT of trouble in recent decades for hunters. Then, there are a weird group, mostly old, who call themselves "Sinixt" and prate about "their territory" as well as having done some blockades in recent years.

    Sooooo, try, but, there are better places in BC, IMHO.

    Not sure if it's the case here, but tag numbers can increase suddenly to a relatively high number when the harvest objective in a given GB Management Unit hasn't been achieved. A good number of tags doesn't always indicate lots of GBs are present.

    High tag numbers generally means poor success

    Can be many reason for poor success rate or not achieving the intended harvest numbers without high tag numbers. This does not mean it is a poor area especially when it comes to grizz. Lots of low odds high tag number grizz LEH that provide an amazing hunt both numbers and quality.
