So I have been doing some more scouting with Gohunt and google earth and have found plenty of spots open for hunting.
My question is are there any decent elk spots in the Washougal unit? The Yacolt Burn is real close to home, and despite the fee it would be easy to access. Does that hold any elk? I am asking just for future reference in case the opportunity arises for hunting elk someday.
Also, could someone who's had experience bow hunting the areas aforementioned above in the previous posts give me an idea of what archery hunting is like out in that area? Is it worth it? I know you can harvest any deer for the early season at least, but I only really want to hunt this area with an archery tag if there's a decent chance at harvesting a spike or better.
I am well equipped both ways as far as modern firearm and archery equipment goes now so it doesn't matter to much which one I choose. I am interested in archery mainly for the lengthy seasons and fewer hunters.
Thanks again for your insight on this!
