I would like to put in for a cow tag in this unit this year is there still public access and area to hunt.

[Squidward]

Very limited, most is owned by the big W and they have a pay permit going. Good Luck!

Unless you plan on buying a timber permit or own property I'd look elsewhere.

Also the south end along the river saw some serious landowner poaching a few years ago so that herd is pretty small. You would be better to look elsewhere.

I'll offer this...

"IF" you draw the cow tag..... and I'm assuming rifle. PM me after and I would be glad to help.

Otherwise... I'm not spilling any more beans....good luck

GMU 506 Has a fair amount of land that is accessible for free.  Hancock, TCI (Campbell group) and may others still allow free access but is generally behind locked gates allowing walk-in hunting only. There is also a fair amount of state property in the mix also.  Do your research, know your boundaries.  There are plenty of elk, however hoof rot is creeping into it on the east boundary.

Look at Ryderwood (530 I think) to the east. More public DNR land is available there and some longview Fiber which isn't permit only.

[Clearcut]

Longview Fibre doesn't own any land. Weyco bought it all up

[pianoman9701]

OK

[Clearcut]

Don't take it the wrong way... just saying. I live in the south end of 530 An a few of the small pieces Fibre had next to the state land our now gated up an permit only.

[pianoman9701]

Got it, thanks for the info.

[elkdrivemenuts]

Allot of Sierra Pacific ground in Ryderwood, it's walk in no permit

I was selected for a cow tag in 506 and now find myself looking for info as well.

Do you have a Weyerhaeuser Pe Ell South access permit? If not, access in that unit will be tough. I believe your only chance would be in the south side of the unit.
