I think your going to have a hard time picking rutting habitat on a map. Even if you could, you then also have to pick a spot nearby for the air taxi to drop you. Picking a spot, just by looking at a map, that is both good moose hunting and a safe place to land can be difficult. I would suggest working with the air taxi you have chosen (assuming you have chosen one) to locate safe drop off places, and then picking one that will offer good hunting.
I would also suggest planning your hunt sooner, like 06. Moose hunting regs change often up here. Especially in places seeing alot of non res hunters. By the time 07 rolls around, you may find your plans out the window as the area you chose is now closed to non res. At the least, speak at length with the area bio about possible changes to hunting regs between now and your hunt time.
