Washington Deer Unit 560

Sightings, hotspots, and hunt insights for Washington Game Management Unit 560.

GMU 560 is a steep, timber-choked slice of the southern Cascades where the Lewis River carves ridge-and-canyon country between Lake Merwin, Yale Lake, and Swift Reservoir, so deer hunters here are really reading verticality wrapped in rainforest. The floor sits at reservoir pools near 490 to 1,000 feet and climbs hard past 6,000 in the northeast, but the real story is the regenerating clearcuts, flushing fireweed, huckleberry, and blackberry, that concentrate movement, plus the late-season push down to warm southern slopes near the lakes as snow shuts the upper roads. The pack covers Unit Overview and Topography, Vegetation and Hydrology, Seasonal Expectations, Logistics and Access, and a one-page Essential Recon summary. Study the unit on our interactive map, then export the points you choose to onX or your favorite hunting map.

How this data was collected

Data Hunt Guide aggregates publicly available sighting reports from across the web (social media, hunting forums, harvest reports, and trail-camera shares) and uses a proprietary algorithm to identify high-activity zones (hotspots) within each unit. Our team verifies coordinates manually before publication.
