Licenses

Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife has not offered an elk license in GMU 124 in any draw we hold. It has a page because the agency still publishes harvest for it; the Washington elk hunts that are on offer are drawn elsewhere.

What Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife publishes after each season, for everyone who hunted the area: harvest statistics, not draw odds. Hunter counts not published for 2025. Washington's figures come from mandatory hunter reports. WDFW credits a multi-GMU special-permit hunt's harvest to every GMU it spans rather than splitting it, so unit totals add up to more than the statewide total.

About These Numbers

Under five tags a percentage carries a *, because one applicant either way swings it. A dash means the agency did not publish the number, and a date marked expected is last cycle's schedule rolled forward. How we compute these.
