Snoqualmie or North Bend elk - property permission

[nicz]

Does anyone in Snoqualmie or North Bend has elk on their property? I am looking for permission to hunt, I can give 1/2 of elk if I get one.
Reply via email please.

Im not to sure this is legal.  Can you offer your animal or part of your animal for land access???  Just wondering.  Its close to selling wild game and I know that isn't legal unless it is raised on a game farm.

You may possess a deer or elk, or parts thereof, that someone else has legally harvested and tagged, if he/she has provided you with a written statement showing his/her name, address, license, permit or tag number, the number and kind of animal provided, the date killed, the county and area it was taken in, your name, the date of the gift/transfer, and the hunter’s signature.

You can give elk meat away, and a person can also allow hunting on their property for free.

So I see no reason why you couldn't give meat to a landowner who let you hunt their land.

Yea but it needs to be a true gift. If the animal is traded for anything of value that's a problem even if it means its tossed out of court later.

I would do it with no concern.

For any charges to be made, the landowner would need to admit to illegally accepting meat as payment, and then prove that was the case.

I think that's highly unlikely.

And good luck getting that prosecuted in King County.

If money is swapped then that's another case. I really don't see much difference in the OP's post and guys who go to eastern WA and give farmers smoked salmon (or whatever) as essentially a thank you for letting them hunt their land.
