RE: Western WA. Hunting
I hunted Vail a bit this year. Normally hunt on East side. That Vail area is pretty interesting (haven't been in there in like 20 years.) Tons of deer sign but tons of hunters. I'd like to hunt it more, but without the ability to scout prior to the season opening it was pretty frustrating. Guys who know it well or get lucky take some nice ones outta there.
