In reading Cameron Hanes & David Longs books they do not provide too much information regarding how big of area to target for a solo bivy style hunter that is 5-10 miles back in the wilderness. Also, where are some general things to look for to find high country mule deer? A guy can get a great look at the country using google earth but realistically what is too small of area or drainage and what is too large to expect to hunt?
1. What size area is big enough to have plenty of hunting area and still be able to cover this all in a 5-7 day hunt? (Mountain/alpine terrain)
2. What areas should a hunter focus on for early season bowhunting? i.e. Altitude, north, south, east or west facing slopes for am and pm glassing?
Thanks for any advice.
