I'm reaching out to see what you all know about hunting on the Boquillas. A buddy and myself both drew tags in 10 this year for Bull and this will be our first time on the Big Bo. I've been reading their rules and seen their "road map" if that's what you can call that fine document they put on their website. My biggest questions for anyone that has hunted there before are how is cell phone service, if any? And is there a road map or forestry map that covers this big chunk of privately leased land? Since there's two of us I'm sure there will be days where we hunt together and other days where we go our separate ways to cover more area. If one of us gets into some bulls or shoots one it would be nice to call the other for help packing him out. And of course it's nice to know we can get in touch with someone in case of an emergency. I've already downloaded and plan on printing USFS Topos and have different hunting apps and GPS topos... but nothing can beat experience and I'm hoping you all have something to share. I'll be getting out there to scout as soon as the ranch lets us on in August and plan on spending every free day I have scouting the whole unit (including outside of the ranch) up until our hunt starts. Anyways I'll keep this short, thanks in advance for your help guys.
