Updated 18 kapowsin permits left! 2-16-13

[Hawgdawg]

They are down to 3 permits!! Elk drawing will be soon. As far as them being friendly to the indians, I'm not sure what your referring to? I'm no big fan of what they charge but I do like the fact that in the kapowsin tree farm they keep the indians out from poaching by saying it's NOT unclaimed land. It's probably the only property that large that they are not allowed to enter and hunt at free will, I'm not sure about the Buckley gate and the land in that area but in the kapowsin gate, I've never seen an indian once on that property.  They will own it someday, but for now, them not being in there is the reason it's one of the best elk draws in the state. Once they buy it, it will all go away.

Look harder. They even run tribal hounds in there. In addition, a reliable source told me they have already purchased some property around the lake.
Your right about the elk draw. That is the only thing I regret about not buying in. Good luck!

Yes they have purchased property next to Kapowsin lake and it wont be to much longer before they purchase the entire place.

I emailed them today to see what the deal was with the number of permits and this is what there response was. 

"We haven't sold out there were 11 left earlier today, it was a problem with the counter.  We are not selling more then 1200 permits, every is how its always been. Hopefully I will be able to do it next Friday, we will post it as soon as the winners have been notified."

Well hopefully that is true!

They sold every thing below the 100 line to the indians. That makes up the whole back side of Kapowison lake. I heard a rumor the indians plan to put a casino back there but don't take that to the bank as I have not heard anything further.

Now they are up to 16!!! :bash:WTF is going on with these jackazzes.

Talked to Clyde and he doesn't know what is going on, I will call claudia tomorow and see what she knows.

I can't imagine these are refundable, so the possibility of permits being initially bought but then being reoffered is out of the question. I'm guessing they are willing to sell as many as people are willing to purchase, but internally have a set cutoff date for their permit draw. Maybe 3/31? Probably want to make it look like there are only a few left and people need to buy them ASAP. Don't know, but that's what it sure looks like.  I don't know of any way for anyone but Hancock to truly know how many permits have been sold, so why not sell as many as possible under the guise of 1200 or whatever they advertise.  Not like any of the purchasers can tell from how many people they see up there how many permits were sold.

They said the drawing will be April 5th but with all the bs so far this year...who know's.

[scottfrick]

So has anyone heard of the drawing results yet for elk?

[Old Man Yager]

It says they will email notify the draw winners by April 1, and it's the 5th, so I guess I am SOL.
