Mtmountainman, my comments were not directed at you specifically,just the topic.Definitely not practical for guy's to get that deep without a huge commitment of horses and equipment.
I hunt in Idaho every year for whitetails.We go unguided.There is one outfitter in the town we hunt out of and we are on decent terms with him.There definitely is an attitude of the entire area being his even though it is all federal,state or Potlatch land for the most part.We will not purposely go in to area's that he is running hunters in.He runs guys around on four wheelers and set's them in tree stands.We all sneak and still hunt with the occaisional sits over funnels or abundant sign.We purposely go in to area's you can't get a four wheeler in to.We never have any problems with this outfitter,the locals hate the guy.
