Hunter looking for a little help on where to go
« on: November 05, 2019, 09:01:23 AM »
Looking for places to go deer hunting I know the west side of the mountains are crowded and east would be nice if I had a long weekend. I live on west side traveling to Capitol forest and the peninsula during the general season lots of sign but no luck. Should I cut my losses and go somewhere else? I can only hunt the two days of late buck season and I'm willing walk if there's gates. I have a weyerhauser walk in permit for the chelan area also.

If you have found an area with lots of sign I would continue to work that area.  :twocents:
With only 2 days I would not want to try a new area and possibly be somewhere there is no sign and no animals.
In God we trust, all others bring cash.

Do not say, Why were the old days better than these? For it is not wise to ask such questions.

If there are animals there, pack a lunch and hunt that area.
Scouting is when you want to log miles.
Hunting is where you put what you learned to use.
Find a good spot to sit near where you found good sign, and be patient.
