ELD--

Sounds like you're familiar with Snoqualmie.  I will be hunting that area during modern this year.  If you buy a vehicle pass and receive a key, does that key work on other yellow gates within the tree farm, or only the entry gate you referenced?

Hancock won't give me a straight answer.  The response is, "you'll receive a map that shows which gates your key works at". 

I am entering DNR lands, moving around them and onto Hancock lands.  First time.  Just kinda like an idea of what I could expect, so I can tailor my plans/plan B, plan C, etc., for when I encounter other orange vests.

Honestly, I've never tried the other gates, but I doubt it works. Hancock says to only enter through Gate 10/11 and they can take your key and permit away if you break the rules. It isn't worth the risk.

Once in, you can basaically drive anywhere, as long as the roads are not grown over.

Thanks for the input / advice.  I'll keep that in mind.   :tup:

I'd just hate to find a good area behind a gate or two only to have a car roll in at 7 am, park, turn on the radio and scope it out.

Keys only work at gate 11/12.
