It amazes me how the same people who complain about lack of land accessible to hunting, loss of habitat by land turning into housing developments, etc. are the same people who will then complain the government is buying land where you can then hunt, will continue to be habitat, etc.

And the corridors that are coming, I'm thinking somewhere along the lines of the Wildlands Projects-

WDFW has extended the comments period through 12/7 via email. I didn't find an online comment section.
Looks like two properties in Skagit and one in Whatcom if anyone else is in my neck of the woods has input for them. I liked the individual site presentations for each location. It would be nice to see estimated value/cost but understand it may be a bit early in the procurement phase.
