Hey, I'm a fellow Vermonter and I did some scouting at Egypt valley two years ago before deciding against spending my time down there. The area holds big deer but it is a tough place to hunt when you only get there one week a year. There is plenty of topography to hunt funnels during the rut and plenty of cover to grow big bucks but getting stands hung and good access on foot (good as in low impact) seems very tough to do without much pre-season work. If you have any other questions let me know and good luck if you do hunt there. LOVE HUNTING OHIO!!!!
