Hunting Methods
Depending on your weapon and time of the season, hunt methods may include
using a 4x4 vehicle for access, glassing logging cuts and hillsides,
watching water holes or feeding areas, calling, and tracking.
Hunt Areas
Most of the moose hunting areas are in northeast Washington north of Spokane.
Elevations vary from 2500 to 6000 feet, the terrain is rolling mountains
and drainages with dense evergreen forests and logging cuts.
Trophy Quality
Most bulls taken have had 38" to 48" wide antlers. Numerous record class bulls
have been taken in northeast Washington.
Success & Weapons
Shot opportunity has been 100% most years. Rifles should be .25 caliber
or larger and zeroed at 200 yards, most shots are 50 to 250 yards.
Archers should practice from 10 to 60 yards.
Season & Best Time
Moose seasons run from Oct 1 to Nov 30. Archery is best in early October
when rutting bulls can be called in close. Rifle hunting is also very good
in late Oct or Nov after leaves fall and snow offers better visibility and
tracking.
