RE: The BigHorn mountain area
Randy, I did not apply for a point last year. I hope our odds will be better with applying for the special license. It was 100% in 06 with the special region R.That was good advice you mentioned about staying in the field for a couple of days then heading back out to a town to relax.Have you ever hunted the Red Gulch/Alkali area? I have read the byway runs through it and was thinking of hunting closer to the mountains but accessingthat area from the road. Hopefully there will be enough BLM land that we have access to go in that way. I guess I won't know squat until I get the maps. I was also thinking ofgetting into town a day early to drive the area and get anidea on the lay of the land.I wonder if there are areas out there where ranchers graze the animals in BLMmedows/fields that aren't right off the road?Something that takes a little walking to get to. Also, are there a good population of Whitetails out there? I am not really into baggingone being I can hunt them here in NJ but I would takeone ifI was lucky enough and itwas big boy.Do the BLM or quadmaps show BLM grazing/farming fields? Do they list the longitude and latitude on them? On another note......and I know you guys that live out there see it everyday but your state isa very beautiful place.When I talk to people from out there I find that allot of peopleweren't originally from Wyoming but moved there because of the hunting.
