I'm starting to accumulate a good portion of my gear now and am planning to head out this weekend around home for an overnight backpacking trip to give everything a trial run. I have been walking with a 40# pack between 2 and 3 miles about every other day. I have also been researching areas and harvest reports and populations and was thinking of trying unit 14. My dad want to go with a muzzleloader and we both bought preference points this year. I was hoping to get some input if this would be a good area to get my feet wet in. I'm not looking for anyone's honey hole in anyway. Thanks
