Wynoochee is a big unit for District 17; although it is dominated by private timber companies, there are scattered sections of public in the form of National Forest, state, GH County and Olympic Wildlife Areas. This unit runs just south of Wynoochee Lake in the north, all the way to Hwy 12 in the south between the towns of Hoquiam, Aberdeen and Montesano. The various industries with large land holdings offer various programs and permits for hunter access.

While there are lots of deer in this unit, there are also a lot of hunters.
