Lots of moose on mica but guys are going to have to work much harder for them now,  just plan on sweating alot to get to the moose and then to get one out.

Thanks for the input guys. Going to focus on my daughters Mt Spokane tag first then mine. Used to riding bikes in for elk on this side thanks to Weyerhaeuser. Think I may build a new aluminum trailer for my bike though. How much cooler will it be towards the end of October vs the first week of October?

On my hunt on Mica in 08 it was about 80 the first of October, much too hot.  At the end of October when I shot my bull it was down to the 50's much better.  No need to hunt them early, timing doesn't really matter, probably better to wait till it gets cooler for meat care.

I have been in there a bunch this spring, the road closure is not TOO bad.  LOTS of moose, I have seen moose 11 out of 12 trips so far this spring.  If you get a moose down in there I'd be more than happy to help you pack it out with the mules, no charge, just for fun.  It's good for them and me both.  :)

That is an awesome offer Machias, you would have to at least take some moose meat for your troubles. I will keep in contact over the summer! Thanks again!
