I also hunt 3B and this has been the worst year in the 33 years I have hunted the area.
During the summer I had plenty of bear and coyotes on the trail cameras. A single doe and another doe with a yearling would show up occasionally.
My son and I hunted 2 weeks of archery, a third week of archery for deer and bear, the week of firearm bear, the two weeks of firearms deer. During that time I saw one Y buck twice. Ironically I did see two nice bucks during the firearm bear season. We also hunted one week of the late flintlock season and again we saw "nothing".
We had a couple of snowstorms during the time I was up there. I have permission to hunt a 1200 acre plot. I rode it with my ATV the first day and the second day after both storms. In the 2.5 to 3 miles I traveled each day I did not cross the track of any animal.
BTW If "Ogdonia" hunts out of Ogdonia camp I am about 12 miles east of him.
