LAST EDITED ON Sep-19-10 AT 12:30PM (MST)[p]Just wondering if there are any guys here that are from the Shawmut area. Back in high school during the early 80's I went on a few elk/mule deer hunts with my dad and some of his buddies. We hunted the Castle Mountains and Mussellshell River bottoms. Dad got to meet a rancher from Shawmut through a mutual acquaintance here in WI. We hunted with Paul and Raymond Fochs both of whom are gone now, but I think of them often. They were the type of friend one hopes he will always have. There was nothing they wouldn't do for us when we came out hunting or a summer vacation. I haven't been to the area in many years, but dad hasn't missed a year since the early 70's when he meet Paul, Raymond and family. He will be celebrating his 82nd birthday this Oct. hunting deer and antelope in the Shawmut area. I am hoping to join him as a tag along, never know when it will be his last trip.
Anyways, I am thinking of archery hunting elk in the next couple of years back in the Castles(lots of memories up there from the few years I hunted as a kid) How is the access to the National Forest land and is the area big enough to get away from the crowds.
Thanks.
