Scouted D-14 over the weekend.

Got out up in the big bear area for some pre-season scouting. Spent all day Friday hitting the fire roads and OHV trails trying to find a good spot to hike in. After a few hours of driving through some thick cover i found a recent burn and a stream that looked promising. Since I have not really hunted up there i wanted to see what i could find. I found few tracks but nothing major. I did find a few spots that i need to put my time in. And i need to check out a few more areas before i pick one to hunt. All in all a great day getting the boots and truck dirty. From what i have read and seen D-14 is going to be really tough to hunt with the poachers, mountain lions, and pot growers. But  I'm up for the challenge it should be a great season hitting the hills. Ran in to a hunter and shot the shit for a while, he saw a button buck in the early am.
