I saw this buck at that camp right off the highway lol

First off, great buck!  Second...That is not a blacktail.. That is a Ridge Runner (Mule/BT cross).  Most of the bucks we shoot now days even down in the Nile are cross bread.

Not an expert at the book or even a novice for that matter, I was going off of the description given by a hunter in the group who is in the/a book with a Cascade Blacktail link to NW Big Game here: http://www.nwbiggame.com/top_10.cfm

I copied the page below and it covers deer from the crossover area as I understand it.  My friends brother is the #7 deer here.

A blacktail from Chelan County?     .

I wouldn't really call it a blacktail but a very nice deer if you ask me.

trees in the second pic make it look eastern wa  work about 3 miles nw from the pass as the crow flies. Either way that is a nice buck!

I believe the distinction is between a Columbia (west side) and Cascade (hybrid) blacktail.  The Cascade being from the area where they meet and crossbreed

Took awhile but I got this shot of the buck, good to know they did get at least one pic.
