There are some pockets of Muleys here, but without first knowing where these pockets are and having permission secured I wouldn't bother. There are much better zones with higher numbers and easier permission.

Just my $0.02

I'd be picking a different area to hunt, partner. Mulies are not very bountiful here.

The same holds true for 501, 502, 503, 504, and 514, I can't speak for 500.

501 and 502 HAD decent populations 30+ years ago but due to increased population = more pressure and traffic, unrestricted hunting (FN and "entitled" non FN locals) and predation the population is maybe 10% of what it once was.

The west side of 502 holds the most, but still nothing to write home about.
