Grouse Hunting Areas!

[CAMPMEAT]

We are actually a little NW of you. Couple miles off the border. If you can get into the springs and ponds at the higher elevations, there are actually quite a few grouse out there. I spent the first four days of the season at the cabin last year and easily limited out all four days. Just like anything else, takes some work. if I didn't have so much fun out there I probably wouldn't drive out for a few birds either.

Are up Nicholson ? We ride our ATVs up there. Good country, huh. I just don't like grouse.

I find the WDFW Small Game Harvest Reports to be a good internet scouting tool. In the case of forest grouse, match the counties with the highest reported harvest with say, a National Forest (ie. public land) and you have some good areas to scout for grouse:
