Just like elk hunting in the Kootenays. If you're hunting the easiest access, front country stuff you will run into hunters. A little thinking outside the box and you'll have it to yourself.

I feel that this would make it more worthwhile for people who would have to travel and the season could go for more than one morning. should I have started a new thread?
Could definitely go for an increase in bag limits on birds. It's an underutilized hunt just like antlerless whitetail.
