My brother has property on the Toroda Creek Rd, and a few other places.  We camp just east of Bodie, and hunt that area.  Made a hunt from the top of Bodie Mt. this year....lot of country.

No one did very good around this area this year. Not worth the drive.  :chuckle:

 I know a realtor in that area who hunted a friends private land over the years and took a: 31, 32 and 34" muley. Saw photo's and the fresh cape and head of the 28" another fellow realtor took from a different parcel. They can get big over there and yes I've seen pickup loads of deer in back of the "road hunters" pickups (12 one time). The bigger deer are savvy from all the road hunter's, you will not find them by the roads. I had three opportunity's at mature muley's over many years of hunting over there and all were 2-3 miles off the nearest road.

my Grandpa has property off of Nicholsen Creek Rd. as well.  we didn't do to good this year the number of hunters not wearing orange is going up and the number of quality bucks is going down where we hunt.

Yes I'm a teacher at Curlew. This is my 5th year at the school I teach science and math. In regaurds to the Nicolson rd  area being not as good hunting its because of all the new mine traffic. I hunt private land in that general vicinity and we still get a few goods one out of it every year.

Definately try to draw that Late whitetail tag
