There are some toads down in the Blues! You will have a great time.
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

I certainly plan on putting in the effort. Just a half decent buck always tickles my fancy.

First time I have drawn anything outside of doe/cow tag.
I got Steptoe late tag. Nov 1-24.
Hunted there for 2nd doe. So I know the area ok.
But want to be there for close to 2 weeks if I can.
So any tips on cheap place to stay or best 2 weeks of that time frame for hunting will be throughly appreciated, haha

I drew QT deer for Nooksack. I’ll  post that post success, or failure when the times comes.

I put in for a sure QTD because this is the last deer tag I’ll ever buy in this state.

I’m not going to bad talk the state because I have lived here most of my life, except short periods in 8th grade, and when I first joined the USN, I truly love this state, but the politics make it pretty hard.😢

With that said I’m going to give it my all.👍


Good luck everyone this year.

Congratulations on the tag, I’m sorry to hear your done in this state. I know in the mid 2010s you posted some nice bucks you had on trail cameras. They were always cool threads to follow

Only for deer, there’s plenty of predators, and grouse to go after, I’ll keep putting in for the Sauk Bull tag as well. Just done with deer as at my age I really don’t think the herds will recover in my lifetime.

I would do a better job of blacking out the hunt number if you want to keep it a secret for whatever reason

I drew Quality Alta rifle. I know it's not the same as it was, as has been said repeatedly on here over the last decade, but it's still a late mule deer tag in beautiful country with a handful of other hunters. The genetics are still there too.. Was my 2nd choice behind Chiwawa, but I will take it.

I also drew an antlerless deer tag in my home unit, 621, but I will probably be turning this one back in for points restoration unless fire season ends up brutally bad in the Alta. Nice to have choices I suppose.

Congrats everyone! So excited for all the kids getting drawn. What an awesome experience to get them further hooked on hunting!

I have no access and no intel at this time besides what I can find from old threads on this site. But I plan to take the last week of the season off and hit it hard. Should be a really fun hunt.  Novembers my favorite time to hunt.

it’s a big area with several units. There is plenty of ground to hunt that holds big whiteys. Blue tongue a couple years back has took a toll but you should be able to find a decent buck. Lots of ffth and stated ground. You never know what will be lurking around that time of year. Good luck!

Hope the blues are better for you tag holders this year than it was for us last year.
A lot less feel free to hunt land than 4 or 5 years ago. Getting permission on hunt by permission land was impossible for us. Saw a few deer but nothing like when I had the tag the first time.

No doubt there are some nice bucks around. But best do your homework and make contact with landowners as soon as possible. Don't be afraid to hunt high!

Wishing you all incredible luck. I was really disappointed in the overall herd health last year. Would love to see it bounce back somewhat this year and see you guys pull some stud bucks out of there. I absolutely love that area!

I wouldn’t expect to get permission. There’s plenty of available land. I find things like permission are a bonus but not something to rely on. I have seen white tail at some very high elevations in the blues .

Pogue whitetail buck tag :drool:
Drew that tag in 2019. Didn’t know the area but since I was retired I was able to hunt alot of the season. Saw some small bucks and missed a beautiful 4 point on the day before the last day of the season.
