The West side is great. Grew up hiking those mountains as a kid then outfitted them for a while. Took the horses up this July 4th weekend to check feed out along Idaho border. Looks good and green. Will Horseback in for 200" buck for the first time in years this fall. I usually spend first two weeks of Nov day hunts and bouivak for a few days at a time, but ussually am within 5 or 6 miles of valley floor. Tired of waiting for those big guys to come down. Im goin in after them. It is true they ARE up there. I feel a top ten MT could come out of those hills for sure. So many places to hide, unforgiving terrain and a season that ends before rut peek. Oh, heck, now I got myself all excited about hunting season again. Guess I better go inventory my gear. Good luck to both of you.
Bittersweet.
MTMULEY, Was the 8mm footage from Kootenai or 270? Was recently discussing the genetic traits between the areas.
