Unit 6A Archery Deer

bbgellerman · Jul 7, 2008

I am getting ready to go up to unit 6A for some pre-season scouting. I hunted the lower part of the unit last season for whitetail, but I dont imagine the deer would stay down that low once it gets hot. I want to get away from the 4-wheelers, so I am thinking about either about scouting Wet Beaver Creek Wilderness, Clear Creek Wilderness, or Fossil Spring Wilderness. Does anyone have anything good or bad to say about these areas?

rough but some good whitetail in there.

A good place to go is up around Stoneman Lake. You get into some pretty good country. Is your hunt archery or rifle?

Archery most likely. I did put in for the late whitetail hunt, but there are only 75 tags.

LAST EDITED ON Jul-14-08 AT 06:36PM (MST)[p]Either way it will work out. I say north of stoneman lake road won't be a bad area. Its higher elevation and cooler temperatures. You'll catch bucks coming out of the higher country to get into the lower lands for the winter. Its a transition area. I can get some more details such as GPS coordinates and little more specific description if you want.

That gives me a pretty good starting point. A buddy of mine saw a few bucks in that area last year. Both whitetail and muleys are in that area from what I hear. I will let you know what I find this weekend.
