True, what a lot of people think, or feel is a mile is not even close. And I am sure there a some who inflate the distance for whatever reason.In them mountains and by eastern count, 300 yards is a mile-mile and a quarter

I look at it this way, the best hunters and most motivated dudes hike in on average 2.5 -10 miles. That puts that whole zone completely out of the question.
The average hunters and weekend warriors are about 1 - 2.5 miles in. I can't compete with average, meaning that zone is out of the question as well.
The laziest, fattest, truckhunters and rifraf are ALWAYS less than a mile in. That's my zone. I just got to be the best of the worst.
Everyone goes deep these days and most places you run into the deep guys from the other side. So usually <2 miles from TH is a decent spot. Most guys heading in walk right on by.
I’m starting to believe the whole go deep movement is just a way to get all the new guys lost and out of the way of the real hunters.
