Yeah I am not even putting my trail cam out in the hole
This year , I always get elk on it but that doesnt fill my tag and I am getting sick
Of crawling through brush. I got lucky and found them during the season one time and I figure if they are back I would rather find out when I have a tag.  I keep hoping for a
Nice fire to clear the underbrush, but haven't been that lucky yet ; )

That NE region is way overdue for a big fire. It sure would improve that habitat, for both deer and elk.

Looks like I'll be checking out black canyon!  Fires are natures way of clearing out under brush. We need them every few years or we will have a huge fire that destroys eveything.  We need a management plan like they have in yellowstone.

We used to be able to go from Black canyon to O'hare creek but not anymore. They have put up locked gates and posted signs right around Morty's pass.  :dunno: I know there is state land up there but I do not know who or what outfit did it.

Everyone and their brother hunts Black canyon. You won't be alone that's for sure.  :twocents:

:yeah:

If the enviro's would loosen up on their stranglehold of the National Forest, we could have a little more logging which has the same effect as a forest fire for making habitat. At the same time, some of the "cronicly out of work" folks would be able to get a job.  :twocents:

Have you been out towards Sheep creek....they have actually done some pretty good size clearcuts up that way. I know most are talking about farther east.....I spend most of my time in Stevens county.
