    WHATshan - Arrow Lakes

    hi again guys.

    lets talk about Whatshan lake / west side of the arrow lakes?
    i know there is a popular outfitter there.

    any suggestions for deer/elk over there?
    valleys to the west?
    south to edgewood?
    north of whatshan lake/creek/river?

    not asking for your honeyholes but any advice is appreciated!
    thanks

    wolves - does that mean less game or just to watch out when hunting? or both..

    Re: WHATshan - Arrow Lakes

    ok
    i live in vernon -north side of okanagan lake - came from saskatchewan where i only hunted ducks/geese/grouse
    totally hooked on deer and big game hunting. have a few friends who are hard core hunters (spend 10 days in the rain - camped out in the mountains by creston) but i have a family and need to do my hunting close to home - im hoping whatshan or arrow lakes could be a good place to start.

    a joke you shall receive
    some people choose a lifelong goal that totally occupies their thoughts, efforts and resources
    this is a story of one man with such a goal - his everest....

    I have hunted that area for a number of years , this year I was out there for the end of the whitetail season and I have never seen so much wolf sign . Just about every spot I found deer the wolves were not far away. This was around the snowshoe lake area , which I believe may be a wintering spot for some of the elk in that area. From all the wolf sign I came across I would say this will not be good for the deer and elk numbers in that area.

    soylentgreen...My daughter and I both thank you for the video. I think thats is the best chuckle I have had for weeks.

    As for the hunting...the closest I have come to that area is Keefer lake a few times and that is beautiful country with plenty of bigb White tail to be had. No info on the Whatshan area though.
