salmon:
Hoping for some help from you guys. Taking grandson,son-in-law to this unit hunting. We have a doe tag and hope to fill it as they have very little experience and hope to get them hooked on the outdoors more. Anybody willing to share any info if north end or sound end of unit is better? Any other info would be great. Thanks in advance.  PM me if you want.

MADMAX:
Big unit
Rifle doe tag ?
I like the Hamma Hamma, MT Jupiter and MT Townsend areas
Seen more down low than up high
Tag a shotgun and go grouse hunt it now
Look around

salmon:
Yes rifle tag. Planning on going to look around next weekend, trying to find areas to do so. Thanks

MADMAX:
Good luck bud
Deer numbers ain’t what they used to be
Take a bear tag and cougar tag

Running the FS roads early in the morning for grouse and bunnies is some of the best kid "hunting" (not really hunting, but hey...) I've experienced with my kids, in 621, they still talk about it. 90% of the time we saw deer too.

Less during the big season openers because of traffic, but still.

(Let the road hunting discussion begin!)

There are WAY more deer low than high there, but door knocking is very low percentage in those neighborhoods.

If you're into the hiking, then by all means, go high and glass, you'll see deer. But packing and camping can be a lot of work for a kid.

There are clearcut deer to be had too, doe tag makes that a lot more realistic, but lots more cover and competition too. 

Lots of country, and not a bad population of deer, horrible visibility.

My first suggestion is the crack of dawn for grouse and bunnies and be ready for a blacktail to bolt up a cut bank.
