Not real familiar with areas that far north, but I'd give some of the local lumber companies a call and see if they have land open to hunt, and if so, when the cleared some of it. Hancock, at least down south allow walk in hunting, so you have to park at the gate and hike or ride a bike in. Check the regs for your area and see what the requirements are as far as points and all that, then go out and hunt the clear cuts in timber land from first light until about 8-9am when the shade moves out of the draws and depressions. Give yourself an hour or so to get up in there before first light, so you can be waiting when the sun comes up. Blacktail are usually down in the draws and depressions in the shade. If you hunt an area with anterless as well as some sort of point requirement, you should have no problem at all finding a doe to fill the freezer. If you're after a trophy, I can't help ya. Biggest buck I've stumbled across was a 2 pt, but I don't usually hunt for deer, just come across tons of them while hunting elk. The fact that you work kind of weird days is a benefit, it'll allow you to get out on some weekdays when there are less people around to screw up your hunt. Came across 8 of them Sat while sidehilling, 3 within 60yds. I was sidehilling because 2 guys had appeared on the ridge line above me and my buddy while we were hunting elk and scared off the 2 cows we had coming towards us, so we decided to scare up some deer.
