Title: Hunter Orange during muzzloader/archery season
Post by: TheYoungSelfStarter on September 19, 2022, 11:01:41 AM

This may be a silly question by it doesn't hurt to ask I guess. Are we required, in WA, to wear hunter orange during muzzleloaders season? (This season/dates do not overlap with modern firearm season) Just a little confused because I don't know if a muzzleloader would be considered a "modern" firearm.


Thanks!

In some instances seasons will overlap. There are late muzz/archery seasons at the same time as rifle deer or elk. You must wear orange if a modern season is taking place in the same unit.
