Hello, just wanted to ask if anyone had any idea turkey populations in the national forest west of Harrisonburg ? We are going in that area for the opener and any help is appreciated !
Dgif sent out a email last week and one of their biologist said that that part of the state was predicted to have a good year. Other then that I have no idea
Last couple years have been tough in that part of the GW

Not great, have fun
Make sure to wear comfortable shoes. There's some big country in there thats rougher than what it looks on the map.

:agreed:
Been there done that. They are there but you'll have to work for them. Agree with the comment to bring good boots or hiking shoes and will add to pack plenty of water. I have heard that area referred to as "Little Switzerland" a few times.
When I was in college , the areas around Flagpole and Reddish Knob were loaded ... problem with that is it was almost 40 years ago. Good luck , beautiful country .
Stay home. Wasting your time. No birds near there for years.

Not sure why you would say that...unless you don't want to add to the hunters there.

Some of those ridges in that area run between 3000-4000 feet in elevation. Some huge drainages. Hope you're in shape. Good luck.
How did the opener in GWNF treat you? Did you make it out of there with a good story to tell?
I sent him a pm never heard back..reckon my help wasn't good enough
