Help with Topo scouting!
I’m new to topo scouting and could use a bit of help with some local land. I’m blind hunting with my boys this year (ages 10 & 12)and haven’t really had much time to scout. This is their first year hunting (ever) and obviously I’d love for them at the very least to see a dear. Keep in mind, this is public land too…so I have to pack in and out the blind.
At this piece of property, I really only scouted slightly and found a bit of deer sign in the field I’ve pinpointed. That particular field is full of leafy greens, although I have no clue as to what. This is obviously an inside corner, and so far the only location I have pinpointed for putting up a pop-up blind (I’ve walked it in person). The rest of the area (to me) is greatly un-explored.
This is the property boundary in blue…
And here is a hi-res topo…
This second piece of property is about half the distance from me (15 min’s), so it’s much more convenient. It’s only 60 acres though, and having walked much of it, I saw no deer or signs. I threw a marker at the lower right corner of the topo map to make it easier to see the boundry. Anyways, again…here are some images.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! I can pass out the coordinates with a PM.
Dan
