East Side of Quilomene Deer Unit

[CBP1888]

I drew the Quilomene Rifle tag and will be hunting it this November. I知 familiar with the West Side of the unit and the Colockum area for elk and chukars. I致e not hunted the east side of the unit(the area that buts up to the Columbia River) and I知 curious if anyone has seen many  mule deer on the east side. It appears to be really open and rocky with not a lot of cover.

Congrats on the draw!

I just love that area. 

Definitely be prepared to huntnthe east side as well.

It has plenty of cover for deer to disappear, but you cal also glass some large areas over there. 

Enjoy your hunt.

And 30k acres of it just burned up. But should be a great hunt.

The better portion that did hold deer just burnt. Whiskey dick is torched along with the bottom end of skukumcuk. You might pre scout during Elk season but probably wouldn稚 waste fuel that low. We had the tag last and never saw a shooter buck down low. Concentrate along the head end of the bigger canyons at the tree line. That unit not what it once was

The fire changed things up for sure. There are a couple of areas that we located some shooters last year down in the sage brush on the west side. I never did see any decent bucks hunting the higher elevations during the elk hint. I guess I知 going to have to scout that much harder.

haven't been in there since the fire but we had great luck parking at the first sub station past the wind farm visitor center. Not sure what a shooter means to you but this one worked for me.
