Winthrop Bound For Modern - Anyone Else?
« on: October 07, 2013, 01:35:08 PM »
We're heading up toward Winthrop (GMU218/GMU224) Friday morning for the modern season...  Anyone else headed that way - might try to meet up with folks for a beer after we all tag out  :).

I was over there last Wed-Thursday and saw 1 doe and that's it. We put on a few miles bear hunting and saw 4 wolves too....

Good luck.

Twisp, Winthrop and ended up in Mazama. We were to the north side of the highway the whole time on Thursday. I think it was Beaver Canyon or creek where we saw the wolves right out of Twisp. I don't live over there, so I can't give you the specific names. Black Pine Lake was on Wednesday.

I haven't hunted up there since I was a kid. Kind of miss hunting that area, maybe next year after a good summer of scouting and relearning the roads.

Hehe u guys crack me up! I'll be up high around beaver like I have been for the last 10 years. Last year we saw 50-60 deer. No shooter bucks tho, which was uncommon. Lots of spikes and 2 pts, hopefully a few of em are back in the area this year! Also saw a cow and calf moose! Don't get caught up in all the doom and gloom, u just gotta find the right draws! Maybe the wolves only eat the deer near the roads??? Or in town... Good luck up there I'm sure SOMEONE will get 1...  :chuckle:

You and 10K other people.  If you get off the beaten path you should be in good shape.  Stay out of site of the road hunters and you will have better luck.  Many individuals will put on 100's of miles and call that a good days worth of hunting.   :dunno:
Cut em!
It's not the shells!  It's the shooter!
