Anybody know anything about Buck Creek ?

Maybe......

............possibly


Had a cousin who worked for the PUD and kept track of them and would share what he saw. But Buck Creek are you talking about the road headed off of the Sacheen lake cut-off? If so that is gated now or used to be.

Yes, it's Butch Creek. I misread the name. I have to go into Idaho to access this hunt.
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............

Do you take the road north out of Priest River to get there?  Stayed at the motel in PR several times.
If it was easy, everybody would be doing it.

In my Gazateer it looks like you can get in there from the Bead lake/BearPaw road on the washington side.  Bet is some nice country in there.

Yes sir. Turn left on Bearpaw Road, into Washington and look for ADA sign.

There's gotta be a stupid reason why I'd have to go into Idaho, who know's, because the WDFW doesn't....
I was told to call Idaho to see if I could use my ATV ??? Huh !!!

It actually might be faster from the Idaho side. I haven't gone that far on the Bead lake side, but it is nice country. I have hunted north of that area few drainages, and the one I was in was easier to get into from the idaho side.

One day I talked to a couple of hunters that had driven the road all the way from Bead Lake to the area I was hunting just east of Usk.  While scouting near Bead Lake and Marshall Lake I looked for the road they took, and never found it.  Didn't have a map, though.  If I have a map, I can find anything!

Oh, don't worry. I have higher, reliable sources working on it right now. I have to start with WDFW to get all the access passes, maps, keys etc. WDFW is not my friend...... :tup:

I think you're talking about Cook's Lake Rd.  Takes you up above Bead, past Mystic and Cooks Lakes then loops you down Best Chance towards the river and Usk.

Cool country!
