A guide to hunting deer, elk, waterfowl, grouse, chukars and more in the Inland Northwest, including information about the first hunts allowed at Turnbull Wildlife Refuge.
Seven young hunters have drawn permits to get the first shot at waterfowl in the 73-year history of Turnbull National Wildlife Refuge. Their season is Sept. 25-26.
Big-game hunters, or at least the ones who seem to get the most out of the sport, are adept at building the suspense for weeks and digesting the related outdoors experiences long after their tags are filled. “I’ve been scouting for elk and will be quite a bit throughout August and into September,” reported Jeff Holmes last month.
