| Zag11:
I have hunted whitetails on Hancock Timber Co. land in Stevens County for almost 15 years now. Other than closures for fires or active logging, my understanding is as long as you don’t block gates and park legally you are good to go. However, this year, at one of the spots I hunt, there was a new “Manulife” sign at the gate. It still had the WDFW land access agreement sign, so I figured I was good to go. However, I recently went to the Hancock Timber Co. recreation website to see if they had updated anything rule or access-wise, and it redirected me to the Manulife website. After doing some research there, it seems that this land now requires a lease or a permit to hunt? Can anyone speak to this? Is all Hancock land going to permit or lease holders only? Thanks in advance. Would hate to see that land become a pay to play thing. |

Yes. They have chunks for lease. A lot of it already is leased. Big chunks start around $4 an acre. |

We had the same issue on timber company land in Grays Harbor county a few years ago. I get it that it's their land, but now it's just cost prohibitive. Dad and I started hunting there in 1965, lots of memories. |

It'd be nice if their map would show what lands have "No Trespassing" signs on them already. |
