I'm not counting though.

All u need to do is go to hw 410 turn on little Naches road follow that logging road right b4 the pavement ends and take that last left on the left hand side then get out ur GPS find the PCT/Tr.2000 and the get as close as u can using that logging road to the PCT/Tr2000. Use the Louisiana saddle tr to get to the PCT/Tr/2000. Access gmu 653 via gmu 346. Once u get to that spot its all good. U don't need a guid. The bulls are not big but they are definitely in there. I'm not good at describing things so if something is unclear ask me for clarification amd I will try again.

I've only seen the unit from the Highway & On-X Maps at this point. I live about 3.5 hrs SW, but looking to get boots on the ground at least 3 or 4 weekends prior to the start of season.

I have multiple questions I was looking for help with:

Reading input from other hunters I get a lot of Landmarks like lakes, peaks, passes & PCT, but I'm not quite clear where the access points are to park my truck and start these hikes. Trailheads or maze of gravel roads??

I'm looking at the area between 410 and the E border (PCT)

Second, My 25 year Hunting Partner told me he can't commit to joining me due to Marrital issues etc and I get it, but I know my Lady is definitely not a fan of me going solo.

This leaves me 3 options:
- Try to enlist another friend who may not hunt to take multiple days from work ( PLEASE NO!)

- Hire a guide or Outfitter (If I have to...)

- Make some New friends that love hunting Elk and are hopefully familiar from prior hunting ( THIS ONE!)

Note: I have reached out to Chinook Pass Outfitters, but have not heard back what they offer for that area.

Lastly, I hear about the weather turning early and realize a tent or spike camp miles in might be rough if weather hits, but I do love roughing it.
If the weather is too heavy, than should I park my trailer off a spur road or do I need a campground to be safe from Vandals etc?

If Anyone Needs Input on Blue Creek Cow, Toutle Elk, East Wenaha or Watershed Quality Bull Permits I'd be happy to share what I know.

I really appreciate this hunting community! TIA
