I was there last year on the 3rd rifle hunt.It rained the day before , heavy, and almost all of opening day.I hunted out from the Simms , and did see plenty of deer but the mud even made it hard to just walk, it caked on the bottom of my boots and every so often had to clean em.My lower back was sore after that first day.The second day, we chained up and drove about 3 miles off the hwy , parked and found deer, killed my buck around 9, and about 12 on the way out it was a muddy mess like Ive never seen! When we got back to the camp ground people were pulling out and a few stopped to talk/look at my deer and said the mudd wasn't worth the problems and were leaving....Weak hearted maybe, but some people who were not prepared for the mud....Chains, , shovels,a jack if ya have or can borrow and Id even say take in a few 3ft planks of wood and throw em in the back of ur truck as they dont take up any room yet can help get a tire going...
