Hikers should be aware that many of our public lands are open to hunting. Season dates vary, but generally big game hunting begins in early August and ends in late November. While hiking in areas frequented by hunters, it is best to make yourself visible by donning an orange cap and vest. If you are hiking with a dog, your buddy should wear an orange vest too. If being around outdoors-people schlepping rifles is unnerving to you, stick to hiking in national parks and Washington state parks where hunting is prohibited.
