GROUSE 2024...THE LONG COUNTDOWN BEGINS!!!!

[Dave Workman]

Went out yesterday on the sxs for a couple hrs - saw atleast 20 grouse (combination) here in Ferry
Looks like it will be another great year
Tons of young birds as well
Looks like grouse and turkeys are doing very well

OUTSTANDING!

LABOR DAY.... AND WE HAVE 13 MORE DAYS TO GO!
May we ALL begin the opener like this.... It's on a Sunday, and I'm seriously considering taking the next day off. I've earned it.

Saw about 20 birds yesterday on the coast looking for elk. Tons of blues and a handful of the ruffed variety. Sure would have been a nice opening day especially with all the chanterelles I found…

Looks like a mammy and her four youngsters. 

Counting down....11 days to go!

We saw 9 over the weekend.  Eastern Wa. My son wasn't happy but is what it is.   we will be youth pheasant hunting western WA for the opener so he will miss the opener for grouse.    Why don't they open up grouse for youth on the 1st of September for the labor day weekend. ?

They moved the grouse opener from Sep1 to Sep15 because too many campers complained about gunshots ruining their labor day weekend.

All recreators are equal, but some recreators are more equal than others.
