200"mulie Report post Posted October 13, 2010 hunting up top off 366 will be cold but you can't see very far, a lot of still hunting. i would rather be out in the desert off 266 only thing is if you don't do a least one day of scouting your going to have a tough time getting on one cause there will be plenty of hunters. i got my spot that is hard to hunt and hard to access. come on oct. 22 got two ok bucks spotted this is what game and fish said ------ Tripp Canyon - Take SR 70 to west of Safford between Pima and Ft. Thomas. Go southwest on Klondyke road to FS 351, follow FS 351 and hunt side canyons and upper reaches. The Eureka Springs Ranch was sold and several new roads have been placed throughout the ranch. Several of these roads are located on private property and are not accessable to the public. If you have hunted this area in the past it is recommended to do some pre-season scouting. Early season hunting is possible in the cool timbered areas along Hwy. 366 (Swift Trail) for those hunter skilled in hunting the timber types. This area is very steep and the 8000'+ elevation makes hiking difficult but provides a lightly hunted deer resource. Still-hunting and glassing are the most successful hunting techniques for all units Klondyke Area - Take SR 70 to Klondyke road between Pima and Ft. Thomas. Follow to intersection of Bonita road. Go North towards Aravaipa Canyon Area. Access has changed since the 2006 seasons. If you plan to hunt these areas in 2007 it is recommended that you visit the area prior to you hunt opening Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
