Used to hunt there but it's extremely limited access. Very swampy, an Argo is a must. There are some pockets with moose but few and far between. If you go 20-30 miles into the bush you might get lucky.

I used to hunt in 540, now i hunt other WMU's if i get drawn. There are no hills in 540, just flat muskeg, and old forest fire burns. I'm no stranger to the area, trap there as well. I hunt else by choice.
