Never hunted or even scouted the Dutton area, looking for some info about this unit if any MM would like to share
Asking for a friend.

There are animals it's steep. They like the trees and have to have water. I'm sure there's a couple of roads. Hope this helps I seen it on a map once is all

Oof. Deer exist there but the population is low. I found big deer on the west side near Bull Rush spring. Plenty of elk on that unit and low deer numbers.

A friend of mine had an archery elk tag in 2015, we saw a couple of really nice bucks in the Deep Creek and Deer Creek canyons, but I will tell ya this is some nasty country.
Being we seen a couple of nice bucks, 4 years later we drew muzzy deer tags for that unit, went back into that sh!t hole canyon, and we couldn't turn a single deer up, we ended up hunting to the south around Tom Bess, there is a lot of water on this unit, in the way of creeks, springs and cattle ponds.
I haven't spent much time on the west side of the unit.

2015 was the last good year we had down there for deer, population crashed hard after that and hasn’t come back yet.

That's unfortunate, seems to be that way across the state. The surrounding units from what I have seen are way down on numbers as well.
