 Another thing to remember is that you can't time the rut by Thanksgiving.  Last year it was the 22nd. This year it is the 28th. Almost a while week difference! I normally take Thanksgiving week off to hunt whitetails. It helps save vacation time because of the paid holiday. This year I had to schedule the week before because it will be post rut the next week.

We hunted Broadus last year and we camped while it was 1 degree in the mornings and it was a blast you just need to dress right! The horrible part was the 500 miles of icy death roads on the way home! We were puckered up for 10 hours but the stop at Teaser’s outside of Bozeman made it worth it! Have fun!

I don't know what would be worse, ice or the mud. Probably ice

We head over in a week. Weather so far looks mild for broadus area. Could change though.

Agreed with this. For me, my work schedule allows trips after nov 20th so I try to take advantage of thanksgiving. We are leaving on the 23rd and hunting last week of season. Late to post rut activity is what I am expecting

This is what I love about western Montana hunting... not as many “quality” animals and absolutely no goons from Washington. Gotta hunt like a goat in nut deep snow flakes- live off mountain house garbage like a granola muncher headed up the PCT for weeks at a time in hopes of possibly getting the chance to pull the trigger on that majestic 17 total inch B&C forky muley buck.

How does a goat in nut deep snow hunt? Why would a granola eater eat man house?
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

The point was I’ve yet to see anyone from Washington where I hunt in Montana. . It not easy. So therefore I’m content.

I’ve also hunted up the joe in your neighborhood too as well as in the CDA’s. The problem I had with Idaho was the idiots from Washington I tried to get away from Were there too. Luckily there’s enough roadless turf in there it thinned them out a little.
