i live just outside of seattle. 30 miles. Bear, cougar, deer, (mule,whitetail,blacktail) and elk over the counter. Moose, goat, ram lottery. Turkey, pheasant, grouse, chukar, quail, ducks, goose, bobcat, coyote, killer fishing for all 5 species salmon, well sockeye isnt that good. Great place to live and hunt, and I can go on and on about the other fishing and hunting opportunities here. [email protected]. Get in touch, I can show you around. I hunt, fish and trap ;like a mad man. lol. shot a few bobcats, 5x6 whitetail 138 5/8 net, 278 lbs dressed cinnamon bear, tons of ducks and geese, lots of upland birds, coyotes and trapped a good amount of cats and others also. I also have a boat so we fish for salmon year round in the state along with steelhead. This state can be great to hunt and fish or terrible. Just depends on where and when you go. Drop me a line, when u get here I can direct you into some good places. I hunt mostly private ground but the state land and national forest are good also.
