when i was stationed at lewis, when we would train at mout city i would see some absolute toads up the steep hill to the west, dont know if you can hunt that but it would be a great spot for a tree stand, that was in the early 90s though, are you an MP? by chance, anyways vail will be your best bet but get ready for combat huntn at its finest, and of course that will be if weyerhauser doesnt close it down..... pray for rain.... welcome to the site...

been out in the backwoods of FT Lewis 2 times a week lately, and have yet to see a deer, except for along the highway doing 60 coming home.  although my buddy got a nice 3x4 out there about two weeks ago.  haven't heard of many others getting anything THIS year.

I almost tripped over a doe walking through there last week out by mikytna. They can lay there and watch you walk within a few feet if they don't think you saw them.

One of the problems is, 'Strange Control' says a TA is open for Compatible Hunting and when you go to sign into that area, it is "Closed and Off Limits".  Most of the time it is where numerous sightings of deer, AND bear, have been reported.  I smell something and it isn't me.

BTs love the rain and with it, one can walk move, much, quieter through the woods.  Pray for rain!!

My Deer Tag isn't in the soup pot, yet, there is still Late Season.

THE HUNT IS STILL ON!!!! :IBCOOL: :IBCOOL:

What do you mean you couldn't get your paper work in? As far as I know there is no deadline for when you want to go to the Adventure Center and register.  I really hope this isn't something new as I'm in Afghanistan right now and am supposed to be back for the later archery season. I just planned to register once I redeployed.

No you will be good I didn't get my guns registered with PMO so I have to wait a week. Can't go there opening day.

Whew, I was a little worried there. Good luck out there and enjoy the area.  Some really cool spots on the base.
