Anyone with information on the conditions of the trail around pink mountain ranch would be appreciated. Thought this would be a good way to keep those with draws posted as others come out. Good luck everyone.

cheers

i was in the halfway, the trail is shitty, fine if you dont mind beating the heck outta your atv to get through, but I dont know why any would want to. We hiked 5-10 km a day though lots of the alpine, up and down river bottoms, we covered lots of ground. I never saw 1 bision. my dad had the draw 5 years ago and i saw close to a thousand animals including a hundered or so on the ranch property. Its like the game has dissapeared. i saw about 15 elk this trip and last time i was in there you could see 20 or more in a morning, 3 other camps of 5-8 guys and there were there 2-3 weeks and not a animal in any camp.

Just got back yesterday (oct 13th) never got a chance to go down the halfway trail. We got are bison with in a hour of hunting, but some guys were having a hard time hunting them. Saw few moose and nothing for elk lots of whitetails. When it rains up there the main roads are slick so be careful driving. I have a nice big map of the vehicle restrictions if any one wants it. I'm from Langley. Pm me

I got back last week. Got a bison second day in. Didnt see much until the snow pushed them down into the valley floor. Saw some moose but no deer. We checked out the trail but we were in a side by side so we didnt get very far. We rented at the ranch and had a blast. Two young guys shot a massive bull and they were taking the trail around. Im not sure how they managed getting it out. Maybe if they are on here they will inform you. Tons of bison up there tonns. We shot ours just outside of horse camp.

Fort St. John just got a bunch of snow. Quad would still work but up in pink mountain area might be different case.

Just got back from pink mountain and atv's would have worked best if your going to stick to the trails
