As far as i know it ends today. I went out today and didnt see much but i was just looking for fun. i heard two shots in the upper skagit valley.
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

I feel your pain. I was off the 27-30th, hunted each day, crappy weather and all.
I was a little discouraged to wake up this morning(for work) and see the wonderfull deer hunting weather... :'(

Hopefully this weather holds through late buck.

Hope we get some good weather for the late season. Heading down to CF or somewhere close. Still haven't pinned it down. Might head out scouting Monday

Well the rain never showed until just before dark. Total for the day was one doe just after noon and then three more just before dark in the rain. Also one grouse and one rabbit. No shots fired and not even a buck spotted. Maybe in the morning.

I was scouting and checking my cameras this late afternoon till dark.  I was out in that downpour in CF.  Perfect!!  Got a bunch of new rub photos and located a couple good stand sites.  Didn't see any deer but I was not wearing a raingear so I beat feet out of there and got absolutely drenched to the bone.  Felt good to be out though.  Got a load of great pics to boot!

I saw a guy riding up Delphi Road on a quad with a rifle slung over his back.  Anyone on here?  Anyone know him?  Figured he was bear hunting or had a special tag.  Hope he wasn't poaching.  He was wearing and orange vest so I didn't think that was the case.

Could have been hunting elk.
