CatfishKev Report post Posted July 20, 2016 My daughter got drawn for the youth hunt and were all stoked. I believe I can get it done but I've never been to the unit. First question is whats the typical prevailing wind direction in this unit in October? I'm used to a north northeast wind in my area along the border but I'm wondering if it's different up that way? Second, anyone willing to show me around the unit at all? I'm already looking at google earth but I'd like some info on roads, what connects where, glassing points, what's private what's not etc. I dont want to know your honey hole! if someone would be willing to show me around at all I'd be grateful. I will make at least one trip up there before hand but my time is limited as I'm working the equivelant of 2 full time jobs. In return I can offer eternal greatfulness, beer, homemade moonshine, info on units surrounding Sierra vista for info on deer or pigs or help fishing for flatheads at patogonia lake. I'm also a licensed roofing contractor, remodeling contractor and was also a drywall contractor so I could offer some insight if you want to do something yourself and save some cash. Oh and I could also offer some pest control applications if need be. Thanks guys Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Northern Pintail Report post Posted July 20, 2016 Wind is typically out of the SW... Hunt the northern part which is primarily forest, you'll find plenty of elk 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CatfishKev Report post Posted July 20, 2016 Yup, we spoke on the phone awhile back. I will be there with my oldest two kids and I'm really looking forward to it. When does the camp start? I don't think I will be able to get there until the day before the hunt. Thanks everyone for being so helpful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coueser Report post Posted July 21, 2016 Not trying to hijack the thread but Dave I'll put a plug in for your youth camp since it came up. If you have a youth with a tag it is a great experience. My son participated last year and you guys made it such an awesome experience Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
