The PD towns out in the middle of the restricted areas means two things, limited access and a lot less pressure on the PDs. But, You basically have two choices, carry everything while walking in/out or carrying on horseback, mule, etc. Toting everything in and out can be a real chore. Suggest you check your intended public lands hunt area carefully on a map and make very sure you have a reasonable means of legal access, per local authorities, before you leave the driveway. You might consider a guide to keep you out of trouble.
