You might want to poke around Burtstick Lake just north of Sundre. Lots of Crown land full of trails to walk if your alone and very easy to set up some quick pushes if you have another hunter or two. Happy Hunting!

x2 what scotty said! Even if you drive a bit further to the swan lake road there is tons of crownland and cutlines! The only problem is there are tons of other hunters out there! P.S. this is the week of the rut.

No deer near Sundre. Best head to Morin for your best chances.

I spend a lot of time on crown land west of Sundre. Lots of trails etc to explore. There are a lot of road hunters but not much foot traffic if you like to walk. If you get into wmu417 does are open if you are looking for meat for the freezer. Good luck!

And the elk are all at one place, where she doesn't allow hunting.

Does one still encounter the British Army west of Sundre running around in the hills, or is that a thing of the past?
