Are you looking at it as a pure hunting property?

I'm also a westsider and have been looking east for property in one of those places with a million animals but too much freaking private land.

I was thinking of getting 20 or so to myself, but I've been kicking around an idea with a friend about putting together a co-op/club sort of thing with a few people and buying a bigger chunk of land--maybe somewhere upwards of 100 acres.

The idea would be to come up with a formal (and legally binding) set of rules to divide up the time and number of animals each person is allowed to harvest. Something along the lines of doing a draft each year to decide who gets which week, and then saying each person (or their friends/family) is allowed to use the property during their weeks and harvest one elk, 3 deer, 2 turkeys, and unlimited coyotes each year. (Those are just random number for exemplary purposes, though, of course). I have some other ideas regarding how to avoid conflicts, but won't go too overboard on this post.

I'm not trying to hijack your thread, but let me know if you're interested. May or may not work, but seems like a good way to share costs and maintenance and get a much better chunk of land.

And before anybody calls me a hippy for promoting a co-op, please remember that I'm still talking about killing stuff.

That sounds like a good idea. Thanks for the offer but I'm not really in the position right now to buy land. I was just posting this to find out some good spots for the not so near future.

Check these out, there are several lots from 5-25 acres.  Most back either paper , FS or county.  We have our cabin there.  Moose, Elk, Deer, Bear, Turkey and lots of grouse.  http://www.century21.com/property/riverbend-meadows-lot-5-cusick-wa-99119-C2122223338.

I have been looking at land in eastern Washington for some time now and the one thing I would suggest would be to find an area and drive the roads most of the large plots seem to sell by owner and don't get posted on the internet. Seems as though people from the country don't spend a lot of time on the internet go figure.

Guaranteed first thing one does upon closing on some ground with wildlife? 

Post no trespassing signs.  It's virtually automatic.

Buying recreational property is a fun journey, although frustrating at times.  Been looking since the early 90's.  Passed on one piece, that in hind sight I should have jumped on.  Since then I've gotten on and off the property search train several times. 

Fast forward to this past year (late 2014/early 2015) and was getting ready to pull the trigger on a piece up in the northeast part of the state, when a good friend sent me a link to something he thought I should look at.  Initially I wasn't that interested, as the pictures that the Realty link had really didn't show it very well.

Long story short.....after reseaching with Google Earth, Flash Earth and then deciding to actually drive over and view the property on site, I knew this was the piece I had always looking for.  Just so happens it turned up in my favorite part of the state as well, southeast Washington's Blue Mountain foothills.  Whiteys are my favorite.

Just keep the dream alive and look, even if it takes years.  You'll know when the right piece comes along.
