go to the Y-Stop in praire keep going till you see the sign that has an arrow and says lava mtn trail head 2 miles pointing to the right.
the road will wind for 2 miles and come to the trail head. this is higher than were your hunting in burnt creek. theres lots of open ridges and lots of it was burned 10 years ago. some of the trees you can see through for miles.
ive never carend to hunt lower in the burnt creek area just drove through. normaly on most weekends its crawling with hunters. this weekend seemed to not be as bad. gas prices drivn them back i guess
but anyways the lava mtn trail is good place to try for a average 20" and bigger buck.
i think the bucks will be prepping for the rut this comeing weekend so hopefully things will be alittle difrent.
good luck
Evan
