Just some "general" info ... Jump on 410 and cross over Chinook Pass.  Drop down the other side and, IMHO, the Bumping and Nile units are good spots to try.  They are about an hour and a half from Puyallup maybe 2 depending on traffic over the pass.  Take a right and head up the Bumping Lake Road (well marked sign) and there are plenty of off-shoot roads to check out.  Continue down 410 to the Old River Road bridge and head up the hill.  More good areas up there.  Continue down 410 to Cliffdell and at the Shell station they sell a "Sherrif's" map that's a pretty good topo map that I know contains all the roads in the Nile area.  I can't remember if it has the Bumping area as well.  Another area a little closer to Puyallup is on 410 a couple miles after Greewater is up the FS-70 line.  Lots of good areas in there.  Be careful though as some of the areas are Western and after you get up top you're in Eastern and the Nachese (I think) is closed to early Archery.  Good luck!
