trophyhnter Report post Posted November 5, 2003 Pops, older bother, younger brother (14) and I have 24B dec Whitetail . I read the G&F webpage and was thinking of scouting the area north of the Pinto Mine in the wilderness area. We have spent all of our time scouting for elk. I have nov 7 archery tag and Pops and younger brother have 4a rifle elk tag in two weeks. This is my little borther's first elk and deer hunt with a tag. I posted a story with a pic of a buck I shot in 22. Hopefully we can all improve on that buck. Where ever we hunt or if we harvest...I'm sure it will be a good time.

az4life Report post Posted November 25, 2003 Like the GFD website says, the path through the mine changes frequently. Not uncommon to see nice coues in the mine area along the slag ponds as you drive through. Some of the bigger bucks in 24b have come around the pinto mine. After you get through the mine, and cross the bridge, you have choices to make. Left or right. Left roads are more rugged and steep canyons. It is often one of those places that you have to think "If I get one, How will I get to it, and how will I get it out.?" Right fork takes you back to lower draws and canyons. Lower elevations. Have Seen Deer in both places, but on the left forks tend to be more of them. Good Luck! I may see you out there! I have a tag in that unit as well for the Dec Hunt!
