I'm only putting in for Skagit due to the Skagit bear thread suggesting extremely high success rates for those bear hunters...

I will put in for NE corner because it is where I hunt bear, and I feel it is one of the best black bear areas in Washington State.
That's why I put in for that area... and we have a place there... and there's lots of bears there... and they're soft and fuzzy... and they're are juicy and delicious... :drool:

I put in for a Westside unit. If I don't get drawn I'll probably buy a Idaho tag.

I am putting in for a westside unit and an eastside unit, if i get drawn for the westside i hope i can find someone to help me as im getting old :(
It has been years since i have drawn...
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

Here is some food for thought. 2014 Permit break down by unit and points.
