80 units? Deer numbers shouldn't be an issue....the terrain where they're at will. Some are in areas darn near impossible to reach safely. (archery season) You'll earn one (physically) in some of those areas where the better ones hang out.
As for 371 (archery season), they are there in isolated pockets near the 12,000' range.......what's sort of unique in that unit is you can glass bowls that has everything a mule deer needs, yet it can be void of deer. A few more bowls later in your long divide hike, you may find several nice bucks in a small, out-of-the-way bowl that often gets overlooked. They're there......once you find them it's a good hunt. They will generally summer in the same bowl year after year.
