locked gate?
« on: June 02, 2014, 10:15:53 AM »
Went out to do a little pre cam placement scouting this weekend and ran in to a locked gate. Sign closed during dec-march15th  but gate is still locked. We hiked in and tossed all the logs and rocks off the road for 3 miles then went about my business.  How can I find out info on this gate. When/why/if it will be opened?

Thanks :tup:

Was there any contact info or company name on the sign?

Private individual or company/timberland property?

Identify the owner of the property and start your inquiry there.

If its wdfw, they could be keeping it closed to let it grow back. They did that to many old roads in the oak creek drainage- some of them still have gates up and its been a good 15-20 years.  Its a good thing imo. 

I dont mind if it stays locked, maybe won't be such a pumkin patch this year :)

 :tup: just get on their trails and start walking ....find fresh sign and walk them down...that's worked well for me finding them....I found a bull before first light one day and followed him for probably a couple miles to end up jumping him maybe 500yds from my truck...he made a huge circle and bedded down...you just never known unless you beat the brush
