Looking for some good ideas for a cougar hunt this Sunday. Any success stories, tips tricks or methods used would be greatly appreciated..

Please feel free to offer up anything at all as i have never hunted Cougar in passed.

I am on the Westside of the Cascades and am considering something around Crystal mountain, green water or ...?

Just remember there is no harvest in Stevens, Pend Oreille, Okanagon, Chelan, and Ferry counties.

master- I have combed the Washington atlas gazetteer topographical maps and can't find plum creek any place on that damn thing. Let me know if ya can, which is the best way to get up there.

I found cherry creek, Tokul, tolt river, etc... But no Plum..

Anyway if you can offer some brief direction if not thanks for the tip and i will head that way anyways.

Sweet thanks.

Is it private land that needs permission?

Forest road numbers?

It shouldn't be private.  Every chunk of plum creek and DNR land over here on the eastside that i know of is open to the public.
