AI Scout Preview

WY 88 – Kendrick: Tactical Analysis. Terrain & Access WY 88 spans 5,100–6,800 feet across 143,000 acres with just over half the land in public ownership. The elevation range supports both lower-country mule deer habitat and higher sagebrush-juniper transition zones. Public land access is reasonable at 53%, though hunters will encounter mixed checkerboard ownership typical of central Wyoming. Terrain is moderate—not roadless but not heavily roaded either—making foot traffic necessary to escape pressure in productive areas. Herd Quality Recent wildlife surveys show an above average / strong buck:doe ratio, indicating a well-managed deer population with good recruitment..
