This large GMU is located between the Cascade Range and Wenatchee Mountains in the east to Road 203 and civilization to the west. A huge percentage of this unit is public land, mainly Snoqualmie National Forest covering the bulk of the eastern half, along with smaller, more broken state grounds in the south and west. The western edges have lots of smaller private lands with a bit of urban, and the remainder of the private lands are largely held by timber companies. The Cascade Range along the eastern border consists of roadless backcountry with Mount Hinman peaking at 7,428-ft and Mount Daniel at 7,884-ft, offering backpack hunters alpine bowls and a little elbow room. Snoqualmie provides good hunting opportunities and hunters are advised to scout their preferred areas in advance because both state and private timberlands are gated with restrictive access. Many of the elk are found on private land at various times of the year with livestock in close proximity. Blacktail deer hunting opportunities can be found throughout the GMU. Forest land provides great opportunities for hunters willing to burn some boot leather. Focus on edges between regrowth in the 5 year age class in old growth forests.

This unit has lots of hunting pressure with limited access.
