Deer Hunting Camp Gruber In Oklahoma

[mchunter]

Don't know if there is anyone on here who hunts this area, but I am trying to find something out. I have lived in Tahlequah for over 20 years now and used to hunt Camp Gruber quite a bit. I have never hunted the Area #5 and am wanting to try it out. I talked with the National Guard gentleman and he said the access was through Area #3. The only access I can see through Area #3 to Area #5 is on the north end where it borders the Cherokee GMA, but it looks like you would have to drive into the GMA and then into the #5. Area #5 is only open during muzzleloader and rifle and then a few days later on, so I don't think the GMA would be open during the muzzleloader and rifle seasons. Anyone have any info on this? Thanks.
