I drew a Early Rifle in the Kaibab 12A West. Does anyone have experience hunting the Kanab Creek wilderness area in the early rifle. This year it's from Oct 25th to November 3rd. I have horses and pack mules and was thinking of getting into the wilderness area to get away from the crowds, ATV's ,UTV's and general road hunters. I haven't drawn a tag in that area since 94 and don't know the area. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Always a few super old bucks hanging in there. Worth scouting it IMHO.

I am not super familiar with that side of the unit, but dont put all your eggs in 1 basket. Weather can play a big roll in where the deer are. Scout there as well as plan B, plan C, plan D, etc.

99 per cent of the deer are on top at that time. even during the late hunt deer are often still in top.  if you want to hunt down there I would scout it before the season.
