looking for a outfitter for the Dayton

[bearpaw]

I talked with Bigdaddy last night.  In the past the USFS had given me verbal permission to pack meat only in the Dayton unit.  That permission came as the result of some meat lost by un prepared hunters.  This year I asked for a Temporary Permit to pack meat only in the Dayton Unit.  The request was denied so I will not be packing meat on a verbal approval.
My permit is not worth putting in jeopardy for $500. 

Like nwhunter indicated there have been a few temporary permits issued in the past.  They were for the Mossback bunch in the past. Another temp permit this year.

Use caution in making connections with lesser known individuals that have history guiding in the Dayton.  Their track record in completing their obligations is not good.

Dave, You should send a link for this topic to the forest office that administers the Dayton unit just to show them there is a need for a licensed outfitter in that area!

Same with the Watershed.  I've pursued a meat packing temp permit there for years.  The last guy gave it up when the insurance was prohibitive.  Not going to happen again.   I've had several hunters call USFS with their needs and still nothing.  Issuing a permit envolves work and they are not interested.
