mtn-memories Report post Posted August 2, 2008 I imagine this topic has been covered in depth sometime in the past, but I was wondering about the safety of backpack hunting in some of the Southern units, particularly the ones with leftover tags since I was skunked this year. I've hunted 36b exclusively for 4 years and during those hunts called border patrol on two different occasions after spotting mules packing a number of bales of dope. I didn't ever bother calling in the non-dope packing illegals that I saw almost daily during each of the hunts. We camped in a safe area and travelled quite a bit to hunt. I don't think I would get much sleep in that area if I was packed in deep. Anyhow....I'd be interested in some opinions of those who know about the traffic in the other units. Thanks in advance!
