Congrats !!! If you have any questions on the unit Im sure we could help.We offer drop,supplied and guided hunts in that unit.White Pass Outfitters
It's going to take a team of clydesdales to get my elk out
Don't pass up the bull you posted! That is a decent bull for the unit. He should be a small 6 by the time he finishes or a big 5.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It'd be great to see a few fires be managed for habitat instead of suppressing all of them!The fire last year did great things in making habitat even though it was caused by a human.I don't know that unit, so I can't comment in particular, but the eastside GMUs do have the advantage of fires. I agree with you, forest fires can really improve habitat. The westside suffers from this---because the forest circus no longer logs in much of the Olympic forest, and because no fires can survive there, and now because they are planning to dig up the fire roads, the forest has become almost unhuntable. It is ironic, but I envy those who hunt the fire-prone eastside.pd, the bumping unit never burns. When there is fires, the "officials" say suppress them all due to politics. We don't get the big fires like up north does. Next time you drive over Chinook Pass, you will see the loss of habitat I am taliking about. Maybe one day something will go big and it will be very beneficial to elk hunting when it does.
