What time period in July is best to start scouting for an October 10th mule deer hunt in Central Idaho? The area is already picked out, I know that it holds a small number of mature bucks. It has a few basins around a 10k peak. Could possibly hunt with the bow in September but not as confident...
Going into the Frank this November 6th-14th, should I be looking for more benchy, burnt and brush type country that is lower elevation (5k-7k feet) or higher country with timber pockets and steep rocky cliff areas?
