I had a bushnell stolen at the bottom of a cut near olo mnt last year......didnt plan on one stolen up there.
They just closed granite falls gate today due to "forestry activity" until further notice Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Not as much sign as i hoped for,but I also wasnt able to see pics due to stolen cam,wonder how long it will be shut down?? they have been actively logging the unit non stop for years, wonder why the vehicle closer now???
Who has game cams set up in the weyerhaeuser land near Granite Falls? I was out yesterday checking mine and found someone's about 400 yards away from mine.
Anyone who bought the permit I strongly suggest calling the admin or at least emailing her and voicing an opinion. I suggested, as well as a couple of friends are going to do, to close the east side of the permit area since that is where the logging is taking place and leaving the west side open for us to use. This should not be an issue as the road splits just inside the gate. She is going to bring it up to the manager and see if there is a way to compromise and allow us to at least get a little bit out of our permit this year. I don't see why the guys permit wasn't revoked and that be the end of it, but they do need to look out for their contractors, themselves, as well as us permit holders.Or at least let us up there on the weekends, could you post a link to whoever you are emailing as I will do the same.I agree with steeleywhopper that the worst drivers are the loggers doing 45 mph coming out of there (not the log trucks).Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Not happy with the closure as I live a few minutes away from the granite falls site and that was mostly the reason I purchased the pass. 1 week in to bear season, sorry! Closed!. Fml. I emailed them, they expect it to be closed for approx 2 months.

I just responded to the email I got which is directly to the admin of the nw region for recreational permits. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
We expect the area to be closed around 2 months. We apologize for the inconvenience, but we do the closures for safety reasons when we have heavy traffic on roads. We state in our permit that areas may be closed due to forestry operations. The North Cascades Chelan permit area is 94,440 acres. There are other areas you can still go that are not affected by a closure.

While it's not great news, it sounds like a little bit of good news could come out later this week for us vehicle permit holders

Looks like it's official jbrower. I'm glad weyerhaeuser is working with hunters and making things work. And I commend you for working with them and figuring it out.
