You can bait elk and deer, just not bear or upland game birds.

You cannot bait elk or deer either.

This is incorrect.  No where in the RCW's or the Regs does it state this.
If you aint hunting, you aint livin'

Yes. Would be considered baiting bears. I wouldn't risk shooting one in an area that you know is being baited.

You can't shoot bear over bait...period.. doesn't matter if it's deer bait, elk bait or fish bait... can't shoot them over bait.

If you are hunting over a elk or deer bait that the bears will/would/do eat then yes you can get in trouble for shooting that bear.
