I've spent quite literally hundreds of days out there and I've never had so much as a low tire. I always run a quality 10 ply though  :dunno:

Wow.

I've probably been out there 7 days.......   2 flats.

Load Range D truck tires.

It might depend on which little road you frequent, because I found my way up one that shredded my tires.
I've been knocking on wood all night after posting that lol.  Guaranteed I'll get 4 flats my first trip out this year :chuckle:

Busiest training schedule since the Korean war. Access into the good areas will be an issue this fall. Good luck.

If this is truly the case they should extend the hunt for permit holders, absolutely no reason not to...

anyone putting in for tags out there should know the routine. It's not a secret. Gamble you take when YOU submit your choices :twocents:

Very true, and I agree but why not make it a long season? You’re already competing with tribal hunters and if access is extra limited due to training...

there is plenty of ground to look around in  especially  if you burn some boot leather  the main way of hunting is  driving 25 till you see something   its easy to pull 100 miles on the wheels a day

State already has your money....

There are plenty of tags where you wait for the call that never comes and lose your points and money.  Not right, but like I have said a ton of times if we keep sending them our money we should expect the same treatment we have received.

You can call 509-577-3600 to get a recording of open training areas. It is updated each evening for the next 24 hours.
Nature. It's cheaper than therapy.

I was out there two years ago looking for a cow and didn't see any elk.  I was able to drive the whole area in two days.  The roads are greatly improved, but there is one that was described earlier that had me nervous.  All good advice.  Bring two tires just for the fact that you can be very remote with limited cell service.  They tell you up front that there's no help.

I know someone who trains there and told me the elk are up North.  Makes sense since the Master Hunters are encouraged to hunt Badger Pocket.  If nothing else it is a very cool area and like non other in the State.
