I do remember there was some period when hunting was allowed or maybe the state hired hunters to thin them out but in the fog of time I have no recollection of when that was. Could have been 1980 or 2005 for all I know
They're still all over Moultonborough Neck—in fact, last year I had to stop so quickly for some that the decking in my trailer slid forward and slammed into my 4Runner. A few grand in damage 'cause of three or four running across the road at 9 PM in the rain. Silly deers.

As John mentioned above, they're almost always in the clearings along the way.
