too many hunters in my opinion.  Swakane is better since you can shoot doe's there.Should be real good with this snow

hunted it for more than 15 years now.cant think of a better place to hunt late season. it did take us about 4-5 years to understand the deer, their habits, tendencies, ect.

Isn't that whitetail only though?  Not that this is a bad thing, just don't remember seeing many whitetail over there?
