Snoqualmie Tree Farm - 2026 Passes
« on: February 27, 2026, 07:38:35 PM »
The early purchase period for some begins 3/1, with the rest of the permits going on sale in mid-March.

Anybody giving up this year? After about a 33% reduction in total acreage due to land sale to tribes I know a few who are calling it quits after hunting the farm since the 60s. It's in a sad state of affairs nowadays.

And the lower half of the tree farm will be sold in the next 3 to 5 years.

Never been on Snoqualimie... Been on Vail, St Helens, Rayoiner, and Hancock... Do you know how it compares?
I love you... I really do...

Why do you say that? Speculation or do you know something?

bought the permit when first offered, 3 years in a row. Then gave up, circa 2010
I miss hunting the Weyerhauser tree farms back then...it was FREE access!
Even in the 1970's, was great if only had a day or short weekend to hunt.

We really need to stop selling our land to different countries and sovereign nations that then lock us out of it and the resources that it previously offered. I don’t think we should be selling it to the local tribes anymore than we should be selling our farm fields to China.
