I grew up in Belmont county so I know the topography very well. Bring your hiking shoes. It's very hilly, but beautiful area. Belmont and Monroe fell just out of the top 10 counties for total number of deer harvested last seasons. I believe Belmont was 11th and Monroe was 13th. Here's a link to a brochure the ODNR put out summarizing last year's season: http://www.dnr.state.oh.us/LinkClick...3d&tabid=18781

I'll be hunting in Belmont county this year as well.
