I'm thinking about heading back to Washington next year for Elk and Deer?  Know a couple of ares that might hold some good BT bucks.  Going to take some work to get back into where they are.  If you up to it, shoot me an email or PM.

I found the hunny hole for nice Blacktail bucks, I have photo references of bucks taken in the last few years by me, my family, and friends.  I'm interested in this, would like to learn more.  If its something worth doing I'd even be willing to come through on my end first.  Nice Blacktails are harder to come by than mulies.  Of coarse I can't guide, that wouldn't be legal, but I'm always down for another good hunting partner.
When you see the third, thin the herd.

 Just a note, not sure of your conditions but its all walk in.  Own a bike, ready to hike, and be comfy about taking long pops.  Not always but we've busted them well over 400 more than once.  Let the road hunters bag the spikes and forkys, they all eat good but something about that extra bone on the head makes them taste that much better.

@ 3nails, Them are some bucks!  There isn't no trophy like a nice Blacktail.  Thanks for showing those pics, wish more people would post more pics of blacktail, tired of looking at whitetail, and Mulies.  Although I can't say much because I can't figure out how to post mine off my phone yet.  Keeps saying downloads disabled, can't figure it out.

Them are some dandys for sure, spur_ride must not want a Blacktail that bad!  Although I noticed this forum is from 2009.  Too bad, he better jump on it.  lol

@ bowhunter, I'm going to have to get at a computer and try posting the pics, my phone won't let me.  Those bucks he posted are some hard to beat bruisers no doubt, not in a competition here, just was saying I could guarantee spur_ride a good buck.  I've got some nice bucks to show as well, their all west I-5 bucks no benchlegs.

Hit the high country when you can. There is absolutely nothing stopping you from doing the same.  :tup:

@ WAHunter not sure what timber companies there are in your neck of the woods but the main one here where I'm from is Weco.  Anything drivable gets pounded so hard I swear they need to start putting up traffic signs, you may get lucky getting one this way as I do with my wife every year because she's not into walking plus I take the kids, but for me all walk in areas is where its at!  Less hunting pressure, better buck to doe ratio, and more mature bucks.  I would find out where your walk in areas are, find a high spot where you can glass down into about 10 foot high jacks and wait for one to pop out in an opening, one WILL slip up for sure.
When you see the third, thin the herd.
Right now I'm somewhere picking up sheds.
