The way I read it, the exception is that if you are hunting/fishing/hiking or traveling to or from any of those legitmate activities, as stateted in the RCW, you can carry concealed witout a CPL. I doubt that most gentlemen in green have a clue about the RCW as it is written and the exception. The exception is the same as an off duty LEO, which is quite interesting in and of itself. We are pretty fortunate that the RCW's are quite clear in this case.
