Nice hunter friendly people up there. Ran into one guy who lives back in the timber a good bit. Perhaps 4 miles from a hard road and 10+ from a town with nothing but wood between. Pretty bunged up, but he directed us to a couple out there spots.
Asked him how cold it got in the winter. He said 20 below and a little more some times and he goes thru about 20 cords a winter. Educated and interesting fellow who said screw the town.
Crossed quite a few trees that had some high Elk rubs.
Addition: He had his own dozer back there to plow his way out on two tracks in case the need arose. But it broke down last year. Didn't seem to worry him all that much.
