« on: January 20, 2010, 01:40:29 PM »
Has anyone ever hunted up at Lyman Lakes or up at Cub Lake in the Glacier Peak Wilderness for High Buck?

I've been to both during August, you need traffic lights to direct the hikers at the trail intersections.  ;)

I agree with SWHUNTER as well. No one is going tell you much. Especially since most of posts are asking everyone where to hunt turkey, elk, and deer. Get a good pair of boots and a tank full of gas. The land is there waiting for YOU to discover it.

Looking at SURVEYOR's posts, it seems he is one of those professional computer scouters.  He wants everyone to tell him where to hunt without ever stepping foot into the area. :bash: 

I have got a great idea.  Come July put a pack on your back and hike into these areas that you are interested in and go check them out.  That is how learning/hunting an area USED to work.

I have seen some  really nice bucks come out of that area... The deer are friendly  not spooky.  The animals like to drink water out of hart lake at night and usually head up rubin creek area during the day.  Good luck :chuckle:

you may as well hunt downtown leavenworth during one of there hippie nature freak festivals they have every weekend during the summer. you'll see about the same thing. people, if you wanna call em that. the fact you even asked about 'hunting' anywheres near lyman lakes in september says a lot. you got A LOT of figurin out to do...   iv found only 2 spots that i would get excited about in about 10 years of spendin time in the high country during the summer. they're about 25 or so miles in, and about 3 miles off the trail, literally in country very people have set foot. i don't have horses and the cheapest iv been able to find for a round trip pack in to these spots is around 1100 per person. hopefully soon i'll be doin that trip. i seen the 4 of the 5 biggest bucks of my life back there, 2 that would push 200, even though they're long died off i know there genes didn't go no where. i'll NEVER tell a soul about those places, other than the 3 people that have been there with me. its true wilderness, not anything you'll find in some 'trail book'. its no different up there than anywhere else, the deer are not going to be anywheres near any humans.
