RE: Whitetail Hunting Stites idaho
I live in MT and have never hunted in ID, so take what I say with a "grin of salt"! Thing is, I've looked into hunting that area someday sooner than later, and have talked to a game biologist or two about it.
My general suggestion is to look into the state lands east of Kooskia and Kamiah. That's a big chunk of land with, apparently, high whitetail densities. At least that's a start for you.
