White-Tailed Deer Bag Checks, Gegoka Management Unit, Superior National Forest

Abstract

timber stands composed largely of aspen, birch, mature jack pine, and remnant stands of white and red pine. This habitat is typical of much of the forest in the surrounding region. Seven annual deer hunting checks have been made on the unit by state biologists and personnel of the U. S. Forest Service from 1942 to 1949; no check was made in 1945. Equipment for the e ection and maintenance of checking stations was furnished by the Forest Service.
