I don't know. I have just heard about them. I would try the areas that are where the plateau meets the breaks or finger side canyons.

I've bowhunted the Bab' over 20 years......some of the best bucks I've seen have been within 3 miles either way of Jacob Lake Lodge. Deer numbers are way down compared to years past......but there's a few in there this year. Get off some of the side roads, strap on some boots, and get into the small canyons about the area and you'll see deer.

I was just told of a toad of buck that comes into one of the smaller burns right near Jacob Lake, and saw a picture of one but I didn't get where he was at on the Bab.
