Hunting by Republic/Ferry county

[jstickel]

Have never been hunting there. We live a couple hours south of there and really never had to go to far from home. Kids sports schedule is usually tight when rifle season comes along but we still get a day or so for my son to hunt. That is why I muzzleload. My 15 year old son filled his doe tag. He still has his regular tag. We actually have a weekend off and we are going to just take off to a unit open for late buck. Spur of the moment kind of thing, whatever. Going to pack a tent but prepared to stay at a hotel if one is near by wherever we end up, don't matter mom is not with us so we go wherever we feel like. Thought I'd start by republic area and go from there. Not asking for secret spots but a general idea of where to start. We are experienced hunters and looking at areas that are new to us. WE ARE NOT WESTSIDERS!

Are you going late rifle? If so I’d check the regs before making the drive to 101 if its archery disregard my comment. Good luck

I like staying at Tiffany's on Curlew lake, great place to base out of.

Does he bow hunt? 101 is archery only for late buck, opens today.

The late rifle units are 105, 108, 111, 113, 117, 121, and 124.

That might change your plans a bit but lots of public lands to hunt anywhere. Good luck guys!

I was gonna help, but then I read your last four words..... being a westie I guess we aren't supposed to like or help each other.  Good luck

Trophyhunt-times 2.  Sure was nice of an Arlington guy to tell you where to camp.

Best of luck....

The most viable late season rifle hunting is done West of the Cascades for blacktail. You're not welcome over here though. Go poach a mule deer around Republic. Start by reading the regs.

My Thoughts exactly! Who doesn’t have OnX in 2025 anyways to see all the forest service land you can hunt…
