I didn't. Have been going there for over twenty years and this year was the worst for game. Went the last week of September and a few days into October. Camped way in past the field below Withrow mountain. Very little sign. Only got one Bull Elk to respond to the call and saw one Raghorn. Didn't see any Moose. Lots of Wolf and Grizzly sign though. They were howling most nights. Rode horses way down the river past Mikes camp and all we saw were lots of Buffalo. Probably saw sixty or seventy Buffalo over the hunt. Super slow at Tremble too. Not alot of sign showing a lot of traffic either. Oh well, looking for a new destination next season.

Haven't hunted the Sikanni for maybe 8 years now but have sure had some good times there over the years. Wolf, caribou, goat, elk, moose, grizzly have all come home with us.

Interested as well, normally we hunt the redfern/nevis side but head south in that direction so not that far away. I didn't go this year but last year sounds very similar to your report, lots of wolves and "felt" as game numbers were way down in comparison to years past. Not just numbers but sign as well, tails not being used, buck brush really grown up ect. The family that did go this year had real bad weather and saw hardly anything so came home early. Interested to hear what others have experienced

Thanks
