It's very similar to Big South Fork; rugged terrain and low deer densities. If you want a better than average deer it will be good hunting and you probably wont have people all over you. Get a good topo map, pick out some good terrain funnels, and put in the time. Go hike around and check it out!

Pretty much what Longhunter said. I live close to it and wont deer hunt it because of the very low deer densities compared to surrounding areas that still have low deer densities, just not as bad as the park. But yes there are good deer way back in there but it would be hard for a non-local to really capitalize. I just turkey hunt it and ride 4wheelers.
