I hunted the east side of the La Sals last year for a week during archery season, late august, saw a lot of small bucks, but very few big bucks. Split time up high above timberline and then down low. It can be a tough hunt but good possibilities, just don't expect to see a lot of deer. That area holds a good chance at a buck of a lifetime in my opinion. You will need some snow to help out, hit or miss without weather.
