Thanks to alfoldivandor for some advice I'm going to try Wmu 27, just trying to figure out are camp set up, a friend of mine suggested the portable shelters from Canadian tire but I think condensation would be and issue unless I could get it vented well enough.

4 of us split on a old trailer for sleeping quarters. We built 3 sided wood panels for walls against trailer with tarp for roof. That was our kitchen/ drinking area. Worked out great for us. Good luck.

I used a portable garage for years, You will have to modify it with pipes to make it wider, it's tall so it gets cold at the ground fast. Easy to set up. Put a tarp on the ground and build on it. Fold it up the sides and back and tie it to the shelter. Place another over the top and spike it into the ground. Fill in the font and back with clear plastic and red tuck tape. Made a getto door out of plywood and a fence handle put an air tight stove inside use cots and enjoy. Make sure the top tarp is long enough to make a front cover for your cook stove and BBQ. ENJOY!

Installing a fly over your tent should reduce most of the condensation problems.

Sounds like you guys are young, so the work involved shouldnt be an issue? Enjoy and good luck!

I have hunted 25 four times and would say pick another area nothing but a big swamp, very limited road access so you will be on top of other hunters rivers are not navigable very far due to windfalls. Bushwhacking takes you into swamps there are moose there but success rates are not very good for a reason.

What the hell does that mean??? If your trying to say to a new hunter that 25 is a great spot to hunt moose you have not hunted in many areas. To imply I’m on a 4 wheel tour is ignorant . I have hunted moose for 25 years, there is a reason no one chooses that area look at the success rates for 25 if it was such a great area it would be higher. Mabee with the new road and cutting they started to do when I left it has opened new opportunities.... if one wants to shoot grouse or fish as well crap area end rant
