from past experiance there are deer there but the pressure will be great.bring chains for all 4 tires,shovels tow chains,straps,come along and be ready for steep slippery roads. but should be great hunting.good luck.

Considering how people are driving out here, I can't imagine seeing these idiots on a mountain.   :yike:

If anyone's driving up Stelico, look for a burgandy jeep with a black top chained on all fours. That'll be me and BullElk

I hope Big10 keeps it that way; black top on top and all 4 wheels on bottom.   :yike:

If it keeps snowing you won't be driving to the top.  The wind is blowing and the drifts on the fire break road will be scary deep.  Good luck and be safe.  I will be there Wed-Sun.

It's cold, snows starting to drift up a little in spots. Bucks are somewhat active, have seen a solid buck everyday I've been out, still working on getting in bow range.

it gets scary. during the day there are lots of areas that seems ice free but still have lots of ice. Big drops if you drive off the road as well. Good luck to all
