We always stop in for a burger  :EAT: and to see the pic on the wall. Rocky and i are up there from  a few years ago, and we still goo and look for it every time we are up there.


Some times i head over to Crum or up around Steilco (SP) look out. Rocky shot a doe up there a few years ago with a youth doe permit.

we went over there for archery season this year a few times and saw a few nice buck down low. normally we see spikes and some small 2 points but this year we saw 4 that were 3 points and bigger. One really nice 4x4. all the 3 points and bigger bucks were in the same general area. But they were all over 150 yards away.

I was headed out near republic. Had the trip planned for 2 years. One by one our group dropped out due to finances or time off difficulty. It was down to me and my brother and he just cancelled due to work reasons as well. Needless to say very disappointing. So I decided to go to entiat myself this year. Sounds like its going to be pretty crowded. Going to have to hike it out beyond the other hunters. Anyone want to join me? :'(

better avoided all the lower entiat unit if you want to hike anywhere. You would just be hiking past another road.

Wow .......you ain't kidding UBA. Just looking at the Topo for that unit. Hmmmm.....maybe I'll go more towards chelan. How are the rattlesnakes out there around season opener. Its going to be warmer than most years it looks like so I better wear my snake boots.

I have seen around twenty rattlers in the valley this season however they have all been on the roads while driving. I have yet to see one while hiking. There are not many places in the lower valley that are very far from a road.  I wouldnt let that discourage you thou and i wouldnt worry about the snakes. There are still deer to be had and places to hike.

Mud creek and Potatoe, and all of lower Entiat is a dam zoo. I'll stay away for opening weekend. Last time I went, their were guys stopped in the road with four guns out for a stupid spike!!! Plus we had guys go barging through our camp after a two point we had hanging around. Some people don't give a crap. No thanks..
