My plans are to hunt the 7th, 8th, and 9th up by Chewelah for whiteys and after that try to bust a few yotes and maybe some ducks!

But it's time for elk camping, then look out yotes! I doubt I'll get up north for the late season. Although it is a fun hunt and really would like to try it again.

How's the bear population over in the NE, above Spokane? I've still got a bear tag. Maybe I should haul along my own rifle too...
Best of luck to all!

Ever five years or so I decide I want to try rifle hunting again. Its kind of fun to be able to poke out and touch a deer at 400ys if I want to. Now I remember why I bow hunt. My hunting partner and I put on over 25 miles of ridges in this weekend and close to 200 miles of prime rds. and only saw two small bucks. We seen at least 200 deer between the ridges and the farm fields that you cant hunt this weekend and only five bucks. 3 in the fields, none over forked horns. I could hardly sleep at night because the moon was so bright. Any way long story short, I still have my deer tag and I'm holding on to it for the late season. I could've filled it on small bucks but I'm hoping to fill my freezer with a nice bull next week so I've been trophy hunting. In our group of 5 we have shot, 2 does (B tags) and 3 bucks, 2 spikes and a forky since opener. My wife and I saved our tags for the late hunt. Kelly Hill to 49 North the 17th ish of next month :drool:
PS: I'll be back in the woods bow hunting next year
Thats EXACTLY how I felt this year! The last two years I hunted archery, then went back to modern for the high hunt this year... didn't score there so I hunted a weekend and a day for the general and I remembered why I went archery in the first place! lol
Next year I'll be a resident of Idaho and will be able to hunt archery, and modern in the same year so that's my plan!

Late chelan archery. Come on snow, drive them down!:yeah: My favorite time of year :chuckle:

Did run across a HUGE bull moose. Looked like a match for Pumpkin's bull. If I had the tag, could have taken him at 10 yards. Of course, my camera decided to not work at that time! :bash: The automatic lens cover did not open so all I got was a black screen. Had to take them apart to get them working again, but never saw the bull again.
Looks like a few days here for blacktails, then back to the property for late whiteys..............

I have a late Entiat Archery for Nov 20th to the 29th, of which I'll be hunting the 22nd through the 29th. Have one buddy going with me but he can only hunt Swakane. We did see some decent deer in that area last year. I'd take any help or advice you'd be willing to share and would try to return the favor. I'd PM you with a few questions if you don't mind. Good Luck to all that haven't tagged out yet!

After waiting a number of years I finally drew out on a late Entiat Rifle Permit. I'm not from the area, but have done as much research as possible without getting over to the unit. Work keeps me out of town a lot during the summer/fall months. Not a good thing. I've heard of the familiar places to look for the late hunt. Just had a few questions for someone that has had this tag and is willing to share a bit. I'm planning on being there the last week. That time of the year is it better hitting some of the higher elevations if possible or concentrating a little lower. Also, most say just drive the roads and glass?? I'd rather try to hike in somewhere to get away from the "limited crowd" if possible. Any ideas? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
