Hello everyone,
I am a somewhat experienced (6 years hunting, 4 years backpacking) hunter. I have killed several deer, a black bear, and my fair share of birds. I have become increasingly interested in backpack style hunting, and have all of my own equipment to do so. I predominantly rifle hunt deer and archery hunt elk in Washington State. I am not opposed to changing up weapon choices. I have 5 points in quality deer, 5 in quality elk, 4 in goat, and 4 in sheep.
In a hunting partner I am looking for someone who has experience in the backcountry, or at least is equipped to do so and is willing to embrace the "suck" that comes with living out of a backpack. I am hoping to develop spots in Washington that we can rely on most years. I am interested in hunting early archery elk, the high buck hunt, general season rifle deer, late rifle deer, and late archery elk Further, I would like to hunt out of state in the next 1-2 years. Preferably Arizona OTC late archery deer, Montana OTC late rifle deer, or an early season archery elk hunt.
If this sounds like someone who you would want to hunt with, feel free to pm me or reply to this post. I split time between Yakima and Bellingham, and plan on scouting and hunting both areas among others in Washington this summer and fall.
