Rifle hunting in Markworth Forest: is it legal?
« on: July 08, 2016, 10:27:13 PM »
I've been trying to find out if I can head in with my rifle to Markworth forest outside duvall and am having trouble discerning if I am able to head in there for Modern Firearm season.  What throws me is I've seens some signs around it (or at least pictures) that say "NO SHOOTING", however http://wdfw.wa.gov/publications/01817/wdfw01817.pdf mentions that you can get road accessabilty passes for hunting there.  Does anyone have and insight on this issue?


Thanks!

It is open for modern firearms. The rest of those signs say something to the effect of ...except for legal hunting seasons somethings something something. East of 203 is modern firearm legal in that area.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield
