Went looking for pigs again yesterday (Sat). Gate 4, 7:00A, 39 degrees with a strong wind. The shower Friday night helped tremendously by de-crunching the leaves. I had expected a North wind, so I planned (and went) South of Willis Creek. Turned out that the wind was actually WNW, which didn't really help me much.
I followed the road in a while, then off to the South. Eventually got to three small ponds, and just East to a much longer one that you can even see on the USGS topo. This is likely just Southwest of "VII" on the page 1 map. Through there, you're hugging the North side of some agricultural fields. I then turned back, but did so by going up into each of the bends of Willis Creek.
The round trip took three hours. I didn't see a single pig - even the backside of a fleeing one. Countless deer out there. The South side of the creek is incredibly open and covered in fallen trees. Getting around is pretty trivial. The North side is completely different, and often virtually impassable near the creek's edge.
