To go even further bobcat, when they say all wildernesses; they should say USFS wildernesses.  There have been confused hunters in the past that thought the two park wildernesses were included too.

O wow, the entire alpine lakes and pasayten gmus huh? I figured those were more areas that some other entity defined, not a reference to the gmu, since everywhere else in the regs, gmus are referenced by their number, not their name. I wonder if this is meant to be a little vague. I have talked to several friends who have hunted for years and none of them even realize they cam hunt the high buck hunt. I think they maybe dont understand the areas and just skip over that line in the regs every year, thinking it doesn't apply to them.  Weird. I got in an argument with one guy who sai after 10 years of hunting he would think he would know if he could hi t outside of October and the 4 days in November. He also thought I was a lying poacher for taking my second dear (after drawing shelling out the $66) on Vashon last year.  Seems like s lot of folks just stick tto the general seasons because if they don't quite understand something in the regs, they don't pursue figuring it out.  Just one more reason why I love this website. Everything I have learned has been on my own, nobody else to help me figure out the regs or the hunt. Dad always said he would take me hunting, then wrecked his motorcycle and bye bye dad.  This website and all of its incredibly helpful members have helped me tremendously with questions like these. Admittedly some of my questions have been a little more... Well, dumb. Ha.
Thanks guys for all the help. New hunting areas to scout and learn now. I'm excited about having 10 more days out there to chase bambi!

Well those two GMU's have the same boundaries as the wilderness areas they are named after.

For the Olympic wilderness areas go to the ranger station in quilcene and they have maps for each one. they only cost a few bucks . they are pretty descriptive. and once you find the trailheads into each one they are usually marked on the trail at some point  that the wilderness boundary starts here.
is it tweeker season yet?
