Sierra Pacific "by permission only" access..

[hillbilli]

So I was down in 520 the other day, scouting a bit, and noticed closed gates (not suprising), but noticed that the sign on the gate said "by permission only' access.. The company name is Sierra pacific, does this mean i cant walk in? do I need to call someone for written permission? these gates will probably be open when late season archery rolls around right? (oh and there are no elk in this area.)

they will be open i'm sure they are every year.

Where is the Sierra Pacific land in 520?

I only know of some of their ownership in 530.

I assume it has the same rules as up here ...walk-in - horse or ride a bike ..

 Bobcat, I've got the same question. I've been all over that unit for decades and have never seen Sierra Pacific land. There are a few unlabeled gates down there but nothing with Sierra Pacific on them unless they've had an acquisition within the last couple of months.

The majority of timber co property on the eastside of wildwood rd is SPI. The property to the south of weyco's blockhouse lease and the town of ryderwood is SPI as well. Not sure when it changed hands, around 07 I believe. But dont quote me.

Blackvelvet,

Right, but that is in GMU 530. Where is the Sierra Pacific land in GMU 520?

[blackveltbowhunter]

 .... Skipped over that part in the OP. My bad......

[getreal711]

SPI website says when gates are closed access limited to walk, bike or horseback. When gates are open its limited to the roads and not near logging operations.

Alot of their land is in 530 near ryderwood and maybe the OP had a typo here is the Sierra pacific hotline 1 360 623 1299

There is some SPI land in 520, a couple of smaller blocks east of Toledo, one in the Cedar Creek area and the other up Salmon Creek.
