Now that I have had a couple trips down to the area, I thought I'd bring this topic back up and see what people thought. It is my first time in that Vernal/Jensen area and I have been impressed with the Basin as a whole. Plenty of country to cruise around in, definitely can glass until your eyes fall out, and I've been finding deer as well as antelope.
Not seeing a lot of antelope, and the ones I have seen haven't been real big. Don't know if this new hunt will be a bust or not, but gonna give it an honest try for the whole season. Everyone says there are quite a few there, and maybe I have been too early. A little worried since the rifle hunt is the week before the muzzy one.
Hoping to see a few more larger groups a little later. Have spent most of my time in the Snake John, Coyote Basin, Bonanza, Red Wash areas. I need to spend some more time in the areas further west in the oil fields, I guess???.
Haven't tried the north end at all, and thought I'd ask for local opinions on that.
