Title: Central idaho/horses
Post by: blakecarson70 on November 20, 2022, 09:17:58 AM: Not looking for any sort of honey hole by any stretch, just looking for direction. I have 3 horses, and am looking for an elk area in idaho that gets me away from the quads. I hunted 10a years ago, and do not want to experience the quads ever again. I have been looking between unit 39, salmon units, and smokey bennett units. Can anyone speak for horse trails in these areas?

Thanks!

Good luck.

Obviously sharpen the crosscut saw.
