Like I said, not a big problem for me, I think a little 8-10 hour trip up north for less crowds and more tag availability is no big deal, but I also understand the frustration of seeing formerly quiet spots overrun with new people.

This is a temporary thing with regards to a lot of hunters in spots. Most of the hunters I know are older baby boomers who only have like 10 years of serious backcountry hunting left. If we want hunting to continue we need to get younger people into it IMO.
Also agree on the driving. I have permission on private land close to home, but nothing beats a good hunting trip spending a week in the bush up north or out west.
