So we have one spot that is wicked to hunt. Steep nasty, rough with brush etc. I am always wondering how it compares with others, etc.
So here is what I have. We park at 5234 feet in elevation and hike 1.24 miles to the top. This puts us at 8856 feet in that 1.24. The ridge we hunt on is another 2.4 miles long and in that 2.4 miles we drop to 6400 feet, then back to 8300, then down to 7400, and back to 8120, then last ridge we hit we drop off and make a buck loop back to truck.
So given those numbers, how ?hard? is the haul? We usually hunt it in 8 hours, but will take a mid day nap if it is hot...
