The wind has blown constantly for the last two or three days after raining all day Tuesday. Still not a whole lot of gobbling.

foot in mouth...actually going over there this weekend instead of goin after easterns. buddys work is sending him to eburg tonight so figured what the hell lets meet up n try to find some turkeys. sat-sun.

Any suggestions on where to camp? don't need hook ups or anything. just semi flat piece of ground near the general area where public access n turkeys coincide. Don't need someones "x" spot for the turkeys. I'm satisfied with wandering around aimlessly in the woods for a couple days, would be just like hunting easterns anyhow 

how bout 'Wish Poosh Campground'?

  You could try staying in Taneum creek.  There are several campgrounds in there, it is starting to get busy on the weekends though.

Lets just say we found the turkeys on Saturday, but we're rookies n blew two good opportunities. Lot of fun though, seen a bunch of elk n deer too. The persistent wind gusts helped and hurt. Forced the birds into concentrated pockets on the east facing slopes, good for us since it was unfamiliar ground. The overhead sound was really loud though, couldn't get much out. Called as loud as we could, walk 100yds, rinse repeat.

Went downhill after that. We'd located the birds about 3 miles in and 1500ft up in elevation from our camp. So we figured we'd move camp n get closer for Sunday. Problem is that required going up really high before we could get back down lower....lets just say we spent the night in the truck, dug till 1am, tried everything, was using my hatchet to try and break through the ice layer but both axles were pinned. 8 mile round trip hike yesterday to get help. Icing on the cake was the tom that crossed the road in front of me and stood on the hill 40yrds away, I was only armed with a water bottle  back for more in a few weeks with the hope that we get to hunt both days this time

You guys go ask them if they were "206er's"  or just assume??  I've ran into my share of retard 509er's in my day..  Guess I'm glad I'm a "360er"... 

They aren't retarded, they are just inbred.
