Any advice on late skagit deer tag?

[hunt4life]

 Well my buddy drew the tag and he thought his weyhouser permit was in the unit but he found out it’s not!!! Any advice where he should start looking would be much appreciated!!

[Boss .300 winmag]

So he drew the Skagit quality buck tag unit 426?

[hunt4life]

Yes

[hunt4life]

We have great duck hunting be willing to do some trading for some help!! Thanks alot

[Boss .300 winmag]

Lots of public land in that unit, if can hunt the Far East side of it he could get a muley buck. Read the boundary areas, shouldn’t be that hard to find a place to hunt, good bench leggers in the east side of it.

Upon further review your buddy is screwed if they don’t open the pass up. His unit is east of the closer. 

[hunt4life]

Ya that’s not good!!! Go figure the end of regular season sucked then his tag opens too much weather!!👎

[Boss .300 winmag]

Watch the pass report, if it opens hit it, hunting could be really good.

Thanks for the info!! I will start looking for places off hwy 20 for access

 Don't worry your boundary starts a little east of Bacon cr  there is plenty of ground to hunt between there and the highway closure. 
 I'll send you a pm on a couple places to check out.

Pass is re-opening

 Thats not a good boundary description where you cross Hwy 20 and the Skagit river, so I am assuming the boundry is just east of Bacon cr at the big sign that says Ross Lake National Recreation Area

[hunt4life]

Thanks for all the knowledge guys! I have just never hunted that area and my buddy blew a lot of points I told him never put in for something that guys from work tell ya to do!! So I’m just trying to help him out!! Thanks again

Keep in mind when hunting in the ROSS LAKE NRA, it’s governed by the North Cascades National Park. And you have to be 1/4 mike away from roads, trails, buildings basically anything man made.

You won’t find those refs in the state hunting refs, it’s in the parks compendium written by the head park ranger.
