Might need a snowmobile. Or at least chains on all 4 tires.

Should be a good hunt though, if you can get in there.

That can be scary even on a snowmobile.....

If we get a lot of snow you can still hunt close to the Entiat River Road at 3000 feet (up valley from Lake Creek) or near 25 mile creek at just over 1100 feet. The mule deer winter in the lower part of 25 mile creek; just hunt up lake from the road. Should be a fun hunt.
