Title: Need some advice.
Post by: Ron21 on July 01, 2018, 09:29:05 PM: I am new to this site, and also back in Washington after several years away. I have hunted the 1010 unit many years ago, but drew both 65+ and 2nd deer tag for the Washtucna area. I have no idea where to start to find a place to go. Since I am retired I can go hunting mid-week and also intend to go down to the area this summer to see if I can locate an area and get permission from a land owner to hunt. Where do I start looking...What is the "free to hunt" deal...Thanks for any info.

White tail doe

So you can shoot a general season doe in 1010 and a 2nd in Washtucna?

If you click on the marker, you get redirected to a page showing the particulars for each property. It shows mapping of the properties, hunting hours, directions/parking, and explains how to access (some require permission, some just a registration). Good luck!
