Title: Idaho OTC wilderness areas
Post by: duramax588 on January 26, 2016, 10:27:13 AM: Looking to head to Idaho this year for elk and mule deer if possible. My hunting partner and I are experienced backpack hunters and are looking for a wilderness area in Idaho that we can archery hunt OTC for elk and deer. If anybody could give me a hint on a wilderness to start looking at or an area that fits what I am describing that would be great, PM is fine or whatever works.
Thanks for anyone willing to help
Chris
