There aren't many. In my opinion the weyco side of Margaret is perfect for bow hunters, most your shots should be within bow range and the timber for the most part is very huntable. If I were you I would stay away from the few clearcuts and find some nice timber to hunt.

Heading up the highway take the very next left after mile marker 28. That will put you right at the bottom of a big clear cut. Above the clear cut there is a huge ridge covered in big timber. If you get into that timber from the bottom or top you'll probably walk right into them. Perfect for an archery hunt. Good luck!

The right-hand side of the hiway is open also. There's a gated road on the right and I think it's just before the 260? road that's on the left. Anyway the one on the right goes back about a qrtr mile and opens up into a big field and there's and alder bottom beyond that then the river.

The 260 I think it is goes up to an older clear cut also.
