In lots of places the best hunting is 3-4 miles from the road. If you pack in, you eliminate a 6-8 mile round-trip in the dark. And can get to your hunting area earlier in the morning, and stay later in the evening.


So true... but I do wonder why so many car-campers visit a forum called "Backpack Hunting?"
