Most people go to the Eastside to hunt in the dry. Most years you can hunt a whole week and not see rain or snow. It is also the camping, hiking and getting away from home, minimum 3 hour drive. We mostly camp and hike getting a deer is a bonus. Then we go back home and get our blacktail cause for the most part they are pretty easy to hunt where we are, if you know where to go and have permission to hunt.
