Just six more days till our sweet long 9 day general season, just seeing what areas you all are headed to. I'll be up in the wheat fields for the opening weekend, then up the Chiwawa if I don't tag!!
-
Oh... Somewhere between Mazama, Canada and the Methow. :chuckle:
Took all the summer stuff out of the trailer to store in the shop and started packing hunting gear in the trailer today. Hittin the road after work Thursday and the boys will drive over the pass on Friday afternoon. I'm really looking forward to getting some camp time with the boys even if it's only for opening weekend.

I'm heading over to my cabin in Steven's county....not really to deer hunt but to get set up for elk. I will have my rifle but have'nt killed a buck in the general hunt for years. I usually hunt the late whitetail season.
-
Headed north. Well not to far north as I only live an hour from Canada LOL.....But I can see it from where I will be :chuckle:
-
North of Mazma, Goat Creek drainage. Finishing up packing everything in the trailer. Dad has had his stuff packed for about 2 months now. :chuckle:
-

We'll I grabbed my larger jim horn pack out yesterday and looked at it , I figure that where I'm going I only want to make one trip out . nasty , rocky , steep , close to slide ridge . just a note it's a good idea to throw a couple of heavy garbage bags in your pack , they have many uses . Good luck to all the hunt wa members.
-
Headin out thursday night. Gonna hunt the Snake River breaks. Hopefully I can out-do last year's buck. Friday will be a full day of checking out the crop and trying to put a nice buck to bed!

Taking my 14 year old daughter to the spokane area for her first hunt as the shooter. My brother is tying up her 150" whitey as we speak. I can't wait. Good Luck to all.

Think I'm going to Idaho soon to help my mom's longtime boyfriend get back into big game again. He used to hunt, got into birds, hasn't done big game in a while. Making a trip over there, taking him to one of my spots I used to hunt, hopefully get him on a decent muley.
As for me, headed south towards Medford for my buck, just need to figure out when I'll be where.

Didn't you see those 50 deer when driving thru Mazama,Winthrop and Twisp on your way to camp.
Everyone knows there are very few to no deer in 204, and the ones you see are just scrawny little whitetail does...

I'm holding out for a fat little spiker. :) Will have to just thin out some of the yotes in the mean time.
I'm hoping this deer made it through last year and walks under the stand Saturday morning.

:chuckle: :chuckle: Funny. I do like the rack.. I'm thinking with another year on him he will be a nice buck this year. Haven't caught him on any of our cameras yet but a lot of the deer we've shot over the years, we hadn't seen before hand.

Conconully,
Sounds like alot of other going to be up there as well.

i'll be trying to find somewhere to myself not too far from home. i've got next week off and i figured i'd give deer hunting a try this year. probably just end up being a walk in the woods with my rifle, but it beats the hell out of work.
-
I'll be close to home, in Fall River, Lincoln, and/or Minot Peak. Hunting with my uncle and will be his "guide." I have a muzzleloader deer tag- I will be carrying my rifle, but it will be for bear, if I happen to see one. Or, if I see a monster blacktail I will shoot it since my uncle is disabled and I will have the companion hunter card. I'm going out tomorrow morning for some last minute scouting.
-
Good luck all! Leaving for conconully right now :IBCOOL:
-
good luck all..I will be home,watching an excavator stack cottonwood trees..no more burning big piles here... :bash:
