Avoiding the orange army could be a little tough, and I am praying for snow.

There's always lots of people in 101
Good luck to you but I wouldn’t get your hopes up too high. I’ve hunted 101 my entire life and the deer numbers are very very low. I’m not saying it can’t be done, if you hunt hard you can get into some deer and you never know when you might luck out and find a nice buck in a weird place. As mentioned earlier there’s a lot of county that is nearly devoid of life. A technique I’ve started using is find an area that looks like it will hold some deer, preferably near a wide spot on a road. By looking at the lay of the land find what looks like the best escape route for game, usually down a draw or canyon. Then on opening morning park your pickup a good distance away, stay well away from the good looking area, and with the cover of darkness sneak into a good vantage point of the escape route. With any luck just after sunrise someone wearing 900$ worth of Sitka gear camo with an orange vest over the top of it will go tromping through the good looking area like a herd of elephants. He’ll never even see the buck that he pushed to you and you’ll have meat in the freezer!

If you can hint during the week it will be significantly better.
