I tend to spend lots of my time walking along hillsides, or sitting on my ass freezing with a Rem 700 in my hands trying to locat something brown and furry to shoot during the hunting season...
Does that count? |

 Deer Hunting is tough on the Wetside. |

It can be tough but it's convenient. If I'm unable to get a trip planned to the Eastside I want to find a place not too far away that I can hunt on short notice. I used to be able to bow or shotgun hunt close to my home but suburbia has pushed the deer into oncoming cars.
Are there any good access points (safe & free parking) in the Granite Falls, Mountain Loop, Darrington and/or Northwest WA? I'd like to start scouting now. Area's requiring hiking and/or mountain biking too would be ideal. |

In the Granite Falls area, have you done any checking out of the P5000 road? (off menzil lake rd) There is the pilchuck tree farm also. |

Now that my pussification is complete, I only hunt the east side.

I seem to have the same affliction that R-32 has.
I also tend to see lots of grouse when I've got the '06 in my hands and lots of deer when I have the 12 gauge in my hand. |

Isn't it legal to take grouse with a rifle? Taking along a few plinker rounds would seem ideal for them.
In boy scouts we used to shoot a 00 buckshot ball pressed into a 30-06 case with a primer and a 22 shell scoop of Bullseye (might have been unique, but it's been 30+ years). We'd shoot for hours in his back yard. Pretty accurate too. I've always thought it would be a good idea to take a few along but never have... Quiet, acurate and a ton of fun. I bet the scouts these days would have cow if the scouts actually shot guns... I heard the "hunting" merit badge is really a photo hunt. |

If I remmember right, you can, I think there is a 3 a day limit up to a total of 9 in your posession, and they can be hunted on a Big Game or a Small Game license. I will have to go check out my Regs for this year. to be 100% sure |
