I went out for a late season doe hunt once. Public land, a place I had never been. I used maps and Google Earth to "scout it out" and thought I'd found a good spot. I was going to go out a ridge and drop into a deep ravine with a creek off the backside. I figured it didn't get much pressure because any drag would be a long one, uphill.

My plan was to park the truck right at day break and still hunt my way back in. Everything worked as planned. And two hours later I was down in that creek bottom with a doe in my scope. I whispered "bang", ate my sandwich, and hiked my lazy butt back out of that hole.

Definitely wasn't worth shooting a doe back there (for me at least). Nice spot though.
