On The Ground

This is one of the most unique elk GMUs by far. The North Beach Peninsula is roughly 26-miles long and one-mile wide and is by Ocean Park, with the widest portion only five-miles wide. Both ends have Willapa National Wildlife Refuges in the lower tidal flats. The Pacific Ocean is located to the west and Willapa Bay to the east. This small narrow unit has a bit of everything, from vacation and beach homes, freshwater lakes, a little urban sprawl, undeveloped private lands, farmland, and state parks. This style of hunt is not for everyone, however, it is a unique opportunity to hunt two very unique animals. Take a deeper look at this unit if you want something outside the norm.

Hunt smart and stay patient.

Terrain

This long, thin, populated peninsula is not your average elk hunt. The land here is incredibly fractured with thousands of personal residencies combined with small chunks of big game habitat that is either protected or undeveloped.

  • Roughly 52 square miles

  • 20% public land

  • Elevations range from sea level – 200 feet

Conifer forests are cut into farms and residential or commercial properties with a couple of wildlife refuges on both ends in the lower, wetter marsh lands and tidal flats along the coast.

This unit is basically all private land and permission on prime land is key for the best hunting experience and harvest success.

  • Secure prime private land early

  • Get access to a few private lands so if game moves you can move also

There is very little public camping in this unit. Your best options for lodging, fuel, and groceries will be in the harbor town of Ilwaco.
