[QUOTE="LocalJW, post: 2578164, member: 121012"] They’re tough hunts. Less then 20% overall success. I find that getting 1-2.5 miles in is best. Your deep enough to avoid roads, but shallow enough to avoid horseback and outfitters. Plus if you get to far you may never get meat back out. A 3 mile trek may take you 4-5 hours depending on your abilities and terrain. Do that 2-3x and your talking multiple days. Bear, coyotes, and all other prey get after that meat while your gone. That being said, many locals have honey holes and I know a lot of guy pick up the extra cow depredation tag if theh can afford it. [/QUOTE]
