I’ve had my fish to the second canyon when everyone turns around at the big split. It’s a river to be careful on, but you don’t need to beat your boat if you pay attention. Certain times of the year it’s not boatable cause there’s no water, but fall usually is ok.
If I get the draw, I may have room for another person to hunt as well.

[QUOTE=TyTy;2182317]The first few km's are okay, but you have to watch for people and logging trucks.
Around the first bridge, just after that point, 5km?? or so, there is some private land.
Then after that, there are a few points to watch out for etc.
So, lots of room to hunt, but I also know some of the elk seen where further back, 15km or so, by my buddy who's son got the tag and success a few years back.
I didn't go that far when scouting and didn't go on the actual hunt.
I think more than a few jet boats have been lost up there, so yes, be careful.
It's not an easy river to navigate at times I am told.
Some deer in peoples yards, but I think you have to go higher up.
I think the road with the gate on it is where many of the locals went and why they are so pissed off about that gate.
(because a few still have the key...hmmmm?)
For anyone who applies and wins, I found there were a few great individuals on HBC that sent pm's to help.
So, don't feel like people wont help.
I know some say "why apply for a hunt you know nothing about and then ask others for intel".
Personally, this is such a limited hunt, a once in a lifetime for anyone who wins, why wouldn't others help those folks out???
3 tags a year for Resident!, why not help.
Remember, the FN have tags as well.
So, by not giving intel, hoping to win a tag you may never win in your life, is ridiculous, as someone is going to drop those bulls!!
I would rather it be an HBC member...imo.
Whats access like trying to get up there with a kayak and an electric fat bike?
