Don't know much of the Mon valley but the Allegheny valley still has plenty of deer. There ARE a few pockets that are stomped out but they are areas that have always been hard hit. Any open (meaning unposted and open to all ) private land thats still that way always gets the snot pounded out of it and always has simply because those spots are close to home for lots of guys. What I'm staring to see lately though is a large drop off in hunting pressure in late season and some of these spots are now actually better than they were before 2002 but hey, that could just be a localized thing. How far are you from the Yukon exit along 70? Got a buddy who works near there and has a couple big chunks of woods behind work that're full of deer and not posted.
