Free: Contests & Raffles.
That us what I am looking for. A place I can jump on a quad and go. Just getting so dang old just dont know how wise it is to do it now. But living on the west side is like being in prison. Dont do this, dont do that. No ohvs allowed anywhere. I just got warned by a park ranger because I had my dog of leash while walking on rails to trails all the way out in Pe Ell. Didnt even know you had to have them on a leash. There were no signs posted. Geesh! You get babysat everywhere you go. You dont get that crap on the eastside it seems. Well thanks for the info guys.
Will do, thanks. You live in AZ full time?
Geez. Its happening everywhere. Cant escape it no matter where you go it sounds. AZ sounds good but the heat there would kill me.
Move to Idaho.. Resident 65 and older cheap license fees to hunt& fish combination is $13.75.

I’ve been hunting Stevens county for the past 15 years and grow fonder of it with every trip. A friend retired near Rice. Freedom loving like minded Americans surrounded by beautiful country. The wife and I may just end up there ourselves one day.

Stevens County grandfathered the ATV's so you can ride them on county roads 35 and below if I remember right. Ask Bearpaw if you want to know.
Why is that. You can jump into Idaho and ride a quad on all forest service roads. What is withthe FS in Wa? A bunch of mother hens. And Camp, I even a had a game warden tell me to avoid Onion Creek. Must be bad.
Check in with buckcanyonlodge, he's got some nice properties over here and knows the area well.
some shady people up onion creek. In northport they are referred to as the "hill" people. No power or running water in their little compound. Ran into a mother pimping her 14-16yr old daughter out in the whitebird one night.
A lot of hippies moved into this area over the years to get away from the city, grow weed, and live off the land. But overall the majority are good people living throughout the area, even in Onion Creek, but some of the trash that has moved in you do want to avoid. All in all the area is a great place to live and raise kids. I've lived here my whole life and raised our kids here. I know every part of the Tri county area (Ferry, Stevens, and Pend Oreille counties). Feel free to send me a message before you buy and I'll offer some local advice regarding the good or bad. There are a lot of people making a very good living in the Tri-County area, you just need to figure out how to do that before you move here. There's lots of home based businesses and even people who moved here and that still have businesses in other states or areas of WA. If you work for the government you might be able to transfer, Colville is the main center of business and government offices north of Spokane for this corner of the state. There are other jobs too, if a person wants to work you can probably find a job but I would have the financial part figured out before you move here. I didn't read the whole topic, maybe you have all that figured out. Feel free to send a message if you have questions about a particular area.
