RE: '09 Moose Hunt Options?
You best chance at harvesting a decent bull moose without breaking the bank is either apply in every western and northeastern state for the next 20 years and hope you get drawn, or cross the border into eastern canada. Several places have somewhat reasonable outfitting costs and you could probably have a moose on the ground forunder $5k. That's a long way to go though from Washington though,and I'm not sure how much it would cost in time and money for you to travel across the continent to shoot a moose.
