I drew that same tag in 2011, it took me a couple days to find one to shoot. It was super hot but still fun, I was able to take the kids and check some cool places out. There also seemed to be a lot of coyotes in the unit.
Since Area 161 is a winter range for mulies, the early hunt can havee its issues aka no deer. A good early storm can possibly move the deer to lower country. We hunted there some years ago and never put in for that area again. Plenty of yodel pups in the area.
Good luck.
I hunted unit 72 late last year for deer. That is the Jarbidge wilderness. I went guided and these guys are real good for elk. If you want to know the name of a good outfitter let me know. Best of luck on the hunt.
