My daughter shot her first deer in there last year, it was the first buck we saw. Even though it was the first buck we saw it was worth shooting. It probably scores around 110 or so, we were very happy with the hunt. Didn't find any deer in the elk meadows, we had to head up to the higher clear cuts. Some of the guards will help, some keep to themselves. It is a fun hunt but it was very short for us, if you have the time after you kill your deer take advantage of the fact that you can still enter the watershed and continue to hunt bear and cougar or just say you are and drive around. Take a good camera and get us lots of pic's. She has her deer pic on the youth board, the title "My daughters first deer".
