My family and I have been hiking/ camping in every corner of Washington State for almost twenty years. Before that it was Utah. Being attacked is definitely not a concern. Make sure you have the right gear, food, and support network (contacts back in civiliation who know what your plans are), and you'll be fine. The woods in Washington are the greatest single gift you'll experience in this lifetime.
