YEARS BACK I DREW A COLOCKUM (GMU 329) buck DEER TAG, & only had 3 points! BUT I could not fulfill this trip as I had NO HELP, or SUPPORT. my Jelious boyfriend was just that. WOW waht an unsupportive JERK. NOW this was back in the day where there was NO group permits... I could Imagine dragging those monster bucks out by myself?
I would have entered on the North-side before it became private lands....the game mgrs house out of the Malaga, Wa. side.
It was in 1999. UGG I feel soo defeated...
Soo,,, Years before that tag draw, a friend & I had ventured up that way, same entry on the north side, saw lots of Bucks sitting on hillsides (NO antlers though but seriously odvious) & had found an olde' Elk camp, (spring-summer time)
We witnessed tons oh Legs tagged/nailed up the pine trunks to 25' feet up on 4 tree's! They must have brought an extention ladder or climbing gear here!
Deer & Elk legs nailed opposing onto these tree trunks which MARKED their territory. It must have been 20 years worth or more,,, OR a Poachers camp? hmm
WOW what a site indeed,,, Somewhere I do have a pic of this...
GMU 329 has a been a Permit only for Deer since the Eastern Wa. Winter KILL of 1995/96 soo I had put in for this rare tag and DREW!!! I will again BUT IF I draw I WILL GET HELP and an area away from these claimed camps. LOOK OUT someone may be watching with trail cams....
