Yes, it's just massive beds of fern with trails through them. A treestand would be a good idea for me because the ferns are as high as my head.

were you walking on your knees in the ferns?

The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

My successes at seeing BT's have been hunting in clear cuts and usually around 8:00 am to 9:00 am. I like sitting near a clear cut and glassing the area for hours. If you haven't seen something, wait 5 more minutes. That was the best advice I was given by another hunter.  :tup: Good luck!

Nope. It was kinda weird terrain though. There's trails where you can walk quietly but they are in these little dips so everything else seems super high ( they're about chest high anyways and I'm 6 foot 1). If you don't walk these little trails you sound like a hurricane coming through.
