Hmmm. The area I'm talking about is private land, I admit. When we hunted there, it was not posted. It may be now, as I said in my posting. I took the picture, and I am 99% sure it was taken in that area. If not, it sure looks like I remember it. I'm sorry if you feel I've misled you. I should add, we hunted with an Okanagon resident who knew the owners of the land. We had explicit permission to hunt there.
Edit: BTW, that picture was taken at least thirty years ago. Bob's been gone for 3-4 years now. He used to hunt up nearer Conconully (sp?) a lot, too. He was born and raised in Omak. He worked on my crew in the Seattle Fire Dep't and we both retired in 1981. This was taken about that time, I think. The land was not posted back then. We also used to hunt just East of Dry Coulee, up on Windy Hill, up the Buzzard lake road.
The land you are talking about is private, posted "No Hunting". I know the owner well. As for your picture, you might be 99% sure it was taken in that area, but I am 100% sure is wasn't. All the surrounding ground you have in that picture as well as most of that hill is private as well. Different owner, and I know him well as well. Also posted "No Hunting". Things have changed a lot in that neck of the woods over the last 20 years. Where a guy could once hunt freely, he can't these days.
