varnco Report post Posted December 27, 2015 Anyone know if the rain they got in 24a has rid some of the snow or made it worse? Here's a pic going up to the peak on 21st. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maverick351 Report post Posted December 28, 2015 Was up to peak side today. Good deer activity but the road at top is definitely 4x4 material. Missed a monster coues today that I'll have nightmares about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

S2marble Report post Posted December 28, 2015 What peak was this on? It doesn't look fun at all. Amazing what a week can do. I was up in that area the past 3 weekends and it was almost beatiful! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maverick351 Report post Posted December 28, 2015 That is signal peak in the pic. Yesterday was bad at the top campground loop but the rest was passable. There were a lot of active deer up there but saw no one up high only down low below the snow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jessejohnson63 Report post Posted December 28, 2015 Can you tell if the rut is on yet? I was in there a week ago and watched two whitetail bucks raking trees and a big 2x2 with his head down chasing does. They were in full blown rut for sure! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maverick351 Report post Posted December 29, 2015 See and where I was I saw 2 bucks pushing does and a few bucks all alone and many does all alone. All were up and moving though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Norcy Report post Posted December 30, 2015 No deer in 24A at all. Feel free to hunt all the southern units you want though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
varnco Report post Posted January 1, 2016 Well, my optimist attitude didn't work out. Didn't see a single deer where my cameras were set. Couple of guys I came across saw a solo buck from a distance and solo does. Froze a bit, but had a good time with my son and good Mexican food in Miami. Can't decide if I prefer bugs and heat or cold and no bugs... May try lower elevation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
S2marble Report post Posted January 1, 2016 Well, I abandoned 24a this week and have been up in 2c. Saw a nice big mule buck this morning, but couldn't get closer than about 100 yards. Saw 2 other small bucks (one a little unicorn spike). Will try and find the big buck again tomorrow morning. Looks like the rut is on up here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maverick351 Report post Posted January 3, 2016 Well went out today and had come across one lil spike that never offered a decent shot and about 6 does throughout the mountain. Good day getting the daughter out to see some deer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
