About L. T. Murray Wildlife Area
The L.T. Murray Unit is a Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife property about 15 miles west of Ellensburg in Kittitas County. Its terrain blends conifer forest and shrubsteppe, with riparian corridors running through both. Visitors come to hunt, fish, camp, and watch wildlife, and in winter the Joe Watt Canyon area offers public viewing of elk feeding. Roads are limited to designated Green Dot routes for motorized travel, and the area has no restrooms. The unit is one part of the larger L.T. Murray Wildlife Area.
