So, will get two CA buck tags for sure and try and sneak to Wyoming for some lopers in September.

You should sneak to Wyoming in Nov. for deer and try to get an area 83 lope tag and some doe tags...:)

I have enough points for X9A in 2013 but I think I'm going to keep saveing them for a piticular G zone. In the mean time, look for a nice buck in D14 and 16, and maybe head off to D12

Getting a buck in D14 and D16 is quite an accomplishment !

do any of you backpack and camp in the san bernardino national forrest during your hunt or just hunt for the day and walk back to the truck at dusk?

I am new to the deer hunting sport and live in Yucaipa, ca. and suggestions on where i should start scouting and what to look for?

There is deer all over D14, however with a very low success rate, they are tough to find. Pick an area and start scouting, maybe set a trail cam or two see what's in the area. You live really close to the forest, so it shouldn't be hard to get up there and scout. Good luck

no i have been up looking the last 2 days and am going again tomorra morning. what kind of landscape should i look for? (oak trees, aspen trees, pine, or sage brush?) or does it even matter i was looking up by dry lake but it looks like a pretty popular area for trail hikers and its quite the hike with the access road closed.

Depends on how I feel like hunting..... I've done both.

Access road closed areas are always good because they will keep a lot of the lazy out, but if it's a high recreation area for hikers, it might not be a good spot. As far as what type of terrain, It depends where you would like to hunt. I've seen deer in real thick stuff as well as the more open country. It also depends on your style of hunting. If you have good optics and enjoy glassing, I would pick an area that is more open to glass. The most important thing about being successful in a zone like D14 is to keep at it and don't give up.
