Will see if it happens. Don't want the stupid permit now. I guess I should have looked at the tree farm regs prior to applying. I hope it gets changed and allows someone else the opportunity to draw their "dream" tag. I will just go to Ideeho and buy over the counter if I really need a spring bear fix.Its totally highway robbery what Hancock did with permits this year... not only did they dump the reduced spring bear fee of 100$ and are charging 300$, they took away the family pass so now EVERY adult entering has to pay for a separate permit. They should absolutely loose any and all tax breaks they get if that is how they are going to treat access... its absurd!!!I could care less about there tax breaks.Tree farms should get told to pound sand on bear tree damage intell they decide to open access to spring permit bear hunters.No more bear feeding stationsNo running hounds for spring bear.Intell they grant access to spring bear boot hunters.You want to mandate how private landowners how to mitigate damage to resources on their property? Boy, that's a great precedent to set.That precedent has already been set. I'm not mandate anything ,The spring bear hunt is a damage hunt for bears that are peeling or just to lower poulations to reduce damage.If a private land owner has tree damage and doesn't allow access then that's there problem not WDFW.Private land can allow spring bear Hunter and get some benefit to tree health,or they can suffer tree damage.In the near future it will be a decision they can make.Have you heard that you can lead a horse to water but you can't make em drink.You can give out thousands of bear permits , but if timber company's don't allow access it does no good for tree damage. The private timber company just then have licensed trappers come in and kill off as many as permitted by the WDFW. It gets taken care of behind the scene.

Since the Kapowsin access fee went from the $100 to now required to buy the $300 full access I called and made request to change my kapowsin permit request to just a point. Will see if it happens. Don't want the stupid permit now. I guess I should have looked at the tree farm regs prior to applying. I hope it gets changed and allows someone else the opportunity to draw their "dream" tag. I will just go to Ideeho and buy over the counter if I really need a spring bear fix.
