Celebrate National Public Lands Day tomorrow (Sept. 25) with free entrance to state lands ⁠— no Discover Pass or Vehicle Pass required. Consider a trip to one of dozens of WDFW-managed wildlife areas, such as the Scotch Creek Wildlife Area in Okanogan County. Established in 1992 as a site to support recovery of the region's sharp-tailed grouse population, this 9,604-acre wildlife area includes habitat for white-tailed deer, mule deer, California quail, hawks, woodpeckers and other birds. Visitors can enjoy hunting, camping, hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking, wildlife viewing and more.
