i have hunted this area for years. if you want to find a place to hunt copy these instructions down. take route 33 west towards rawley springs. turn right onto route 612, this will be about 10 miles out from harrisonburg. route 612 will turn to the left about two miles out, follow this until you hit an intersection and make a left, about a half mile down the road you will see a church on the left, a forest service road will be on the left as you pass the church. this is a hardpacked dirt road and will take you to the top of the mountain, the drive alone is worth the trip. at the first intersection you hit going up the mountain (about 8 miles) make a left, follow this road until you come to a large clearing on the left. at this point, if you go straight ahead, it will take you across the top of second mountain. once you come to the power lines for the second time start looking for a place to hunt. if you make a right at the large clearing, that road will take you out to dictum ridge,. there are deer in the area and plenty of bears. oh, if you happen to see a grey toyota with a cap on the back, stop by and say hello.
