Umtanum special elk permit help
« on: October 26, 2016, 04:37:37 PM »
I have a buddy who drew a permit for rifle bull in the umtanum, rifle, he's been at it since it opened.  He's not having much luck and I don't have a clue about that unit.  He's camped on the 1712 rd about 1 mile from a big intersection towards Clemens. I told him I'd ask you guys, he had 20 points.  PM's would be great, thanks guys.

Would this be the observatory big bull permit?

Yes, sorry I should have said that.

My brother and I have  taking our dad out on his disabled permit for observatory since the opener. His inability to hike is a huge obstacle but we have only seen two cows way down low in the Wenas. Talked to a few last day deer hunters Tuesday and they had only seen two cows in the whole deer season. Hoping for a miracle but time spent in the woods with dad is still a great way to spend time.

I agree with above. Steep deep North Facing dense areas. It might be helpful to have someone put on some drives in those locations.

I'll keep an eye out. Wife has a cow tag for Umtaneum (she disabled) so can't go too deep. Haven't seen anything yet but if I do I'll PM a tag holder. I have a couple spots to check still. Good luck.
