Would be my guess. Or vacated the area completely. Anytime you can drive right into camp I expect more hunters than deer.

Semi in that high country a lot of times the deer will move to what i always called the "mid" elevation. not the valley but between the two.with prolonged rain storms and much cooler temps. i would have moved to a bit lower elevation.

Don't know nuttin `bout them mountain thingies.
The highest point in Louisiana is Driskill Mountain (535 feet).
I don't think the deer bother moving up and down it much.

I feel the same way Flounder. I go up the cabin for bear every year and I really don't care if I shoot one. Its just nice spending 3-5 days with the guys in camp. Just talking about hunting, guns, and women. And we all know a lot about the first two, but that third subject we can never figure out.
Our camp is about like your tent except it has rigid walls and roof. But no running water or elec. Just a place to get in out of the wet and cold.
I am in charge of Sunday dinner again this year. So I will be bringing along a huge bison roast and will have mashed potatoes, gravy and some sort of veggie. I'll make the roast in the pressure cooker and it will melt in your mouth.

Nice country side. Been out west years ago and loved it out there. You have a nice slice of heaven there. Enjoy it.
