Title: Pheasant Release Site Hwy 9?
Post by: ORCA_SIX on October 10, 2011, 02:32:08 PM: Has anyone heard about another release site off of Hwy 9 by Snohomish. Not Ebey, Cherry Valley, Stillwater, or Crescent. Something new, I was told by a friend there is one there but he has not looked for it yet. Any ideas?

Night hunting Coyotes if we so choose.
other than that, the elk come dowm into their fields where it will be off limits for most, but i would be able to walk on through after calling ahead, cant wait to try that area out. after the hunters chase them all off the colockum that is lol!

How do you get on the release program?
