Quoted directly from the exemptions portion of that link.

Hunting and fishing on WDFW-managed lands. The Discover Pass is not required for holders of certain hunting and fishing licenses on WDFW recreation lands and water-access sites. For those individuals, a "WDFW vehicle access pass" will be required for vehicle access to WDFW lands and boat launches. WDFW will honor WDFW vehicle use permits that were purchased prior to July 1, 2011, on WDFW lands through March 31, 2012.

Those license holders will need a Discover Pass to access DNR-managed lands that are developed or designated as recreation areas, sites, trailheads and parking areas. Signs will be posted in these areas. License holders will not need a Discover Pass to access small blocks of undesignated DNR-managed lands.

For vehicle access to lands managed by State Parks, all hunters or fishers will need to purchase the Discover Pass. As a reminder, hunting is not allowed on State Parks lands.

Note: The vehicle access pass is valid for the license's year (April 1 through March 31) and is issued free of charge with an individual's initial purchase of a big-game or small-game hunting license, western Washington pheasant permit, trapping license, Watchable Wildlife decal, or saltwater, freshwater or combination recreational fishing license.

Your WDFW vehicle pass should be all that you need in the LT Murray. That's my thought anyway, I wouldn't guarantee you won't get ticket if you don't have the Discover pass.

I read this same thing,
So what about National Forest? Is that considered WDFW land?

No, National Forest is owned by the federal government. WDFW is owned by the state of Washington. Totally different.

I know it's on that map but it's a WDFW wildlife area, and the WDFW vehicle use pass should be valid for that area.

I was up there last weekend and the 3330 was wide open all kinds of cars trucks trailers wall tents you name it it was up there the baricade at the bottom had been removed. I rode in from the top and there was no indication of that road being closed or of even needing to be closed for that matter from the top to bottom.  not sure if they will close it back off but if they due it is assanine as there is a little tiny wash across the road that is nowhere near in need of attention a landscape rake and the 6 inches of gravel pushed out to the shoulder worked back into the road would have any issue taken care of in about 20 minutes worth of work.  the Forest Service needs to quit playing the political no money game to get more and just open it up they would have a drastic drop in the number of people pissed off at the entire organization.  they sure seem to still be able to pay enough for the fancy rigs and the staffing to go with it and if there are no campgrounds to maintain and roads to keep open after closing them all wht the heck are they doing all day.  sorry about the soap box but it rubs me the wrong way a legitimate washout is one thing but the stuff on that road is bull pucky.  Didn't see any elk, one white tail doe and a handfull of grouse but it was still plenty hot.

There's a Discovery Pass Required sign up at Tamarack Springs.  Someone knocked it down, so not sure which direction the sign was pointing towards.

It must be for the area to the east, since that would be state land. To the west is National Forest.
