Weyerhauser Permits

[RB]

Not sure yet I bought two permits last year and never set foot on their land. Still going over the regs and special permits to see what I am going to do.

So I put in for a couple permits, mudflow and toutle. If I happen to draw, are these two areas all Weyco property?

No, they're not all Weyerhaeuser. You could hunt state land. The Weyerhaeuser permit would just give you more area to hunt.

If you have to travel through Weyco land to get to the state land, will you need a permit then?

In the Toutle area we hunt that is not Weyco there is only one way in and one way out.  There is a small corridor that does go through Weyco and you do not need the pass for that.  However, if you see an animal on that corridor you can not stop to shoot it.  It is marked rather well so accidents should be nearly eliminated.  For late season the area without the pass is probably the best place to hunt.  In early season it's a crap shoot. 

Even if you do have the pass you can not get to the non-Weyco property by traveling through the Weyco access roads.  You still have to back track and go through the  small corridor.  That is my biggest gripe with the pass!!!  Key should be good for all gates that are not walk-in only gates.  We used three times the fuel we normally would as most of our spots are split equally between Weyco and non-Weyco, but most are rather close to one another.  Too far to walk to each, but close enough we have to travel nearly ten miles back just to go two miles forward.  So that is 20 miles of driving to get to a spot 2 miles from the Weyco gate.

We offset this, even though it is not the best way to hunt, by starting the day all the way in.  We hunt spot #1, then maybe spot #5, then spot #3, then spot #8 working our way back toward the entrance gate before working our way around.  By the time we drive all the way around to spot #2 it is usually late in the day and not as good as it could have been or as good as it usually is.  But...it is what the new system is.  The frustration is offset by the lack of hunters we run into.

The late archery season is only open for antlerless elk.

Yep, after years of being "Bulls Only" during the last week of the season they changed it to cows only for the whole season.  Made no sense then and makes even less sense now.

Unless you want the elk gone

The pressure was low on the Aberdeen Tree Farm during muzzy elk. But the success rate was low too. I enjoyed the area and close to home but where were the animals? Not purchasing the Weyco pass this year.
