Washington Elk Unit 574

Sightings, hotspots, and hunt insights for Washington Game Management Unit 574.

GMU 574 is Wind River country in Skamania County, a vertical sheet of Cascade rainforest where elk live and die by the ridgelines, with the floor near 150 to 300 feet along the Wind River confluence climbing above 4,500 feet toward Bunker Hill and Big Huckleberry Mountain. Water is never the limit here (the Wind, Trout Creek, and Panther Creek run year-round); the challenge is crossing slot-cut basalt and reading mid-slope huckleberry benches and 8-to-20-year regrowth. Our 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 pick 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.
