Good luck! Lots of people.
It's a fun, not all that difficult, but really long walk to get back to where the elk might be if the gates are locked.
Bike in is okay. Hunt the thick stuff. Boundaries with Stella can be confusing to some people.
Bring a GPS because there are so many roads back there that it's easy to end up on a different road that you thought you were on if you'r hiking around in the woods.

 Most of the roads off the end of Abernathy are going to dead end on you. If you want to push off trail this may be good, but Germany Creek will give you more access to alot more area.
