Just got back from a few days scouting from Trout Lake Valley to Goldendale. Have never seen this many turkeys in one trip. Watched 22 long beards strutting in the evening light. No hens or jakes in that flock. Where as mature toms and hens seemed plentiful really didn't see a normal amount of jakes. I haven't kept up the last couple of years of what's going on over there so possibly a poor chick crop last year? Deer were plentiful, looked to be in good shape, with a fair number of fawns surviving the winter. Good signs for a successful year.
