Title: Clearwater Access
Post by: CoastalHunter on October 09, 2015, 07:21:54 PM: Hi I'll be hunting the Winston Unit this year again but moving to Ocean Shores last year I was talking with a couple of people who got a nice bull out of the Clearwater Unit during Archery Season. So if I don't get anything while up in Winston I'm going to try back home here in Clearwater...

However I'm only asking for good advice as to Access to the area. Anyone know of any roads to get in their or areas to drive in so we can get out and hunt? Anything would be great. Thank You all for your help!

There was road work going on the other day on Clearwater rd past the Queets bridge, but maybe that will be done by late bow season. Otherwise you have to hunt the spots along 101 or take the turn off by the Hoh river for Clearwater forest. You can also hunt the rest of the GMU north of the Hoh to the Bogachiel.

So these people that said Clearwater was by Taholah were wrong.
