HUNTING -- Washington hunters have the option to download the state's 2014 hunting regulations into their smartphones.

The cool thing is that the application will zero in on the unit from which the phone is being used, if you desire. 

The cautious reminder:  you need to be in a cell phone coverage area for the app to work -- and your batteries must be charged!

Cost: $5.99.
