Actually i was down there today, we have elk on the property alot. there is about 5 acres of wetlands on the property and they love the bedding in there. I found cougar tracks along one of the roads in the mud this afternoon.

yep lots of cougars in that area for some reason. Everytime I have fished the skook I always stumble across tracks in there.

I have heard there was a lot of cougars around skookumchuck, but never seen one or its sign. I bet they have seen me up there though.

Last year on my way to Doty, I was passed by a Toyota pickup on southbound I5 just north of Chehalis with a cat strapped to the roof.  Bed had a bull in it.  Good trip for that guy.

I've been out skookumchuck way a bunch lately and haven't seen sheet for elk, I'll have to make sure I'm looking out for bucklucky's non-locals traps though.   :chuckle:

bucklucky would not lie, all the elk dead, no fish left in the skook and it is poluuted with PCB's. All the Turkeys died of turkey STD's. For your own safety stay away. 8)

Had 14 elk in the pasture this evening and not branched bull in the bunch.  All of the branched bulls were poached out between seasons last fall.

I have been out hiking the hills this year quite a bit , more than the past 3 years combined and have only found 1 branched bull. I dont get it . I guess that is why I dont hunt the skook anymore, waist of time.

You must be mistaken as there are no elk in the Blues either ...... You must be thinking of the Colocum  :tup:
