Hi guys,
I was fortunate enough to score a doe tag for MU 2-11 for the month of November. Normally I do all of my hunting in Region 5, so I am pretty unfamiliar with the Pemberton area. Although I was successful in guiding my best friend in on his first buck this year, we ended up splitting the meat 4 ways... and his first shot kinda wrecked part of one of the hind quarters. As a result my freezer is very ready for some more meat! Living in Vancouver I am only a stone throw away from Pemberton and can make multiple weekend trips to hopefully bag a doe or buck. I am also hoping to bring my girlfriend along, which would be her very first time accompanying me on my favorite past time. So I wonder if anyone would be able to give me some suggestions for the area? Exploring new areas is always a blast, but it would be great if I don't have to get turned around on a bunch of the roads.
Some roads I figure worth exploring:
- Birkenhead Lake road/Tenquille creek road
- Sixteen Mile creek FSR (although it is a little close to Whistler recreationalists for my liking)
there are two more valleys which run east/west between Green Lake and Pemberton that look like they have roads in them but they could very well be gated.
- Ryan River road (Running North West of Pemberton Meadows) Hard to say the condition of this road, and it looks steep and thick in there...
- S Creek FSR looks like it starts where the private land ends... could be good
- Lillooet FSR also looks like it has many promising branches of logging roads
- Hurley river FSR could also be promising (although only the section between where it takes off from the Lillooet FSR, and it's highest point, are within MU 2-11)
Well anyways those are my thoughts on possible spots to check out. Thanks for reading!
Best regards,
Carl
ps. Are they Mule deer or black-tailed deer or both in this area?
