We have two creeks that split from one another. I was walking the creek to the split which is swampy and in the fork is 10-15 year old pines. Inside the pines are scrapes and hooks all over and also in the creek bottoms wherever there are dry spots. I felt like I needed to back out quickly from the pines. My thinking is to get up on the hill above the creek bottoms where I can see the majority of the forks, but won't be able to see into the pines. I feel like hunting the openings is safer than going up in the thicket. What say you?

Sounds like a good plan, too many guys try to get too close and get winded. How big an area do the pines cover, can you see around the edge well?

I bought an ATV to get to my hunting area, now half the fun of hunting is the ride in and out.

I can see the point and about 50 or so yards down one side and about all of the other side. The pines are about 5 acres tapering off to natural growth at the property line.

Sounds like a good plan. Since you can't see too far on the one side I'd do a very short and noninvasive scout around it. If you're buck hunting I'd look for a faint trail heading into the pines. Or even some big tracks around the creek. Set up on it a little off the fork with a good wind and see what happens. 5 acres is plenty of enough room for a smart buck to get in and out of undetected. Good luck!
