I have hunted 74 behind the Ski area. There is a trail that takes you up on top of the Ski area. If you take that trail to the gate I know guides set up there for the MZ season. Also down at the bottom of that mountain is Hermosa Creek with a bunch of draws going east and west that hold some good bulls. Some of these don't have exits [extremely steep] so be careful going up one and expecting to come out the next. There are tons of day trip areas in that location. Some good pack in spots also. Pray for lousy weather if you are doing day trips.

82/ 86 is THE toughest country in the ENTIRE state. If you can hack it you have a chance at a mature bull. Don't kid yourself. Good luck!
