Just found out I got my 2nd choice deer tag, which is a High Cascade tag that starts in September then, if a guy doesn't fill it, converts to a blacktail buck tag for the general season. Generally speaking, it's up around the PCT, and has extension both east and west of the PCT. Lots of mulie/blacktail hybrids up there. I haven't decided where to target yet.
I also got a Steens antelope tag. I will be researching whether a backpack hunt is appropriate for that hunt. It's a wonderful place to pack in for deer; dunno if the 'lopes are up high or down in the sage in August. I'm hoping for up high!
Love to hear what you got!!
