Are you saying you drew a modern white river tag 653? If so, I wouldn't bother with hancock.

Yes scouted the whole area. Good just wasn't sure.  Camped last week at the  Runway Ranger camp area. 73 road I think. Thinking I will deer hunt there so I can Scout more. Rick

Was wanting more open land to hunt.

Unit is thin at higher elevations. Check out Norse Peak area for open country and plenty elk.

If you have a 653 tag. I would consider the hancock kapowsin pass. It let's you access the buckley gate. There is some dandy bulls in there.

dont know where you get your info but the rules say the Buckley gate is closed to all access during any bull elk season  :dunno:

The Kapowsin winners may hunt on Kapowsin main block only.  No recreation access is allowed on the Buckley block during any bull elk season.

Pretty sure no access means "No Access"

 Unless you drew the Hancock lottery pass you can't go through the Hancock gates during elk season. It does not matter what tag you hold if you don't have their permission to be on their property. That's one reason many buy the pass to start with by knowing if they get drawn elk season is going to be thin on other hubters.
There is no greater respect to have for wildlife than to harvest an animal fairly and use it's flesh to feed your family.  ~me

Just so we don't confuse people, if you draw a white river elk tag, you can hunt on the White river hancock properties. But not the buckley gate property which is in the white river unit BUT no access is allowed during elk season.  Unless you have the Hancock elk permit.

You shouldn't need the pass to hunt on the 75, 73 or 74 rd system, if I'm right most of that is forest service land.  Some spots might be hancock property but most should be forest service.

All of 74 which has a gate walk in only is Hancock , going up the 75 is Hancock  for a few miles both sides of the rd. And yes there is some Bulls in there But alot of people up there as well.

Rick,
I bought the pass when I drew in 2013.  Mistake. You don't need it.   I saw plenty of bulls on national forest land.
