It's too late for that. Deadline was September 1st. From page 9:

Isn't Colockum considered WDFW managed land?

I believe the Naneum State Forest is DNR?

You're right, I thought that was all Colockum Wildlife Area, but a good block is managed by DNR.

Hopefully they are being overly cautious and it will open up this weekend or next week.  Lots of good area still open there though on NFS and the Quilomene.

Usually when DNR closes their lands the WDFW does the same. I bet we'll be seeing an announcement soon.
