LAST EDITED ON Jun-29-15 AT 01:12AM (MST)[p]Well I got a Non resident Middle Fork 20a tag on accident as hunt numbers changed this year for some reason for what I wanted. So basically im trying to make the best out of my tag and im not finding alot of information so after being a non member snooper i decided to become a member of the muleymadness team and get nosey...lol.
Well a lil info...Im a professional Firefighter and do ALOT of big country hunting. my biggest fail was not getting 2015 regulations before i applied and well thats when i found out hunt numbers changed to the corresponding unit numbers...Ive hunted alot of breaks and big country like this and am use to elk in the weiser unit so steep nasty ever living country is ok. Im hearing/seeing alot of talk about boating in and getting a mule line to take me up possibly but ill be the only one in my 2 man group that'll actually have the tag. Is hiking in feesable or at all comfortable...and november im hearing alot of people saying theres snow maybe this time? might have accidently drawn a tag im not honestly prepared for...not physically...just knowledge and experience wise.
Can any of you guys recommend where to begin scouting/looking for some concentrations of animals and maps. really i just want to stay away from were there where big fires last year and were i'm not gonna get wolved out..Which has happened to me 2 years ago on a back country hunt(no fun but did it...lol). have any of you guys talked or had luck with local bios?
If any of you have hunted the middle fork specifically the 20A unit and have any first hand experience and can lend a hand i would greatly appreciate it! Maybe if any of you guys head over to the Washington side I can pay back the favor and help you out!
Thanks again and respectfully. AJ
