Gardner Quality Tag
« on: October 26, 2020, 06:29:19 PM »
I drew a Garder Quality tag this year. Headed up Saturday for the duration of the season. Trying to track down some of the other tag holders if anyone knows of any.

Consider accessing the Sawtooth Wilderness area via Wolf Creek Rd. (I think). I've seen some dandies up there and several were seen before entering the wilderness area. Good luck!

I used to see  few nice ones between Twisp & Winthrop west of the highway  & East edge of WDFW land but that was years ago. Glassed from east side of Methow river.

Not much for rutting activity in Alta. Glassed up 50-60 deer the first day & around 30 the second day. A handful of small bucks.

Take your snow chains. Just got back after three weeks in that unit. Not much snow but packed down and icey.

My buddy shot a 27 1/2 inch in regular season. But he was the only one out of our group of 15.

Last 5 days of general season we saw 15 legal bucks and almost all were pushing does.
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

 The weather doesn’t play much into it in my experience, they will be rutting for the next couple weeks regardless. :twocents:
