Drew the mashel unit for deer and elk. As this is my first post and I don't plan on contributing after I get what I want, any advice would be gladly accepted

well ill tell ya what ill give you one of my honey holes! go down that dig road until you hit those two roads on the left, take a right there follow that for about 16 miles then  take a right go straight for about 50 ft then take three lefts back to back then follow that for about 169 cm take a right then stop at the end of the gravel road, now there will be 7 different trails in front of you, the three on the left will take you to elk country and the one all the way to the right has some good heavy bodied black tail on it but the others just lead to wal-mart. good luck

Invest in a good pair of boots!!

[jackmaster]

there aint no deer and elk in the mashel anymore, the poachers and big cats have pretty much wiped them out

[wormfood]

What tags did you draw for the mashel? Just curios I live in Eatonville and the unit has general seasons for everything.

[wraithen]

Seriously though. I live right outside of JBLM and aside from the range itself, statistically for westside it looks like one of our best options. Anyone got any advice I'll take it. I'll be my first year hunting so I've buddied up with a Utah Elk hunter and a New Mexico deer hunter so I'm pretty sure we're all lost!

[wormfood]

Which tags did ya draw? Early , late, anterless, 2nd deer?

[Mudman]

You could try the elkspur horse trails.  About 6-7 miles end to end.

Wormfood - I didn't draw any tags. It was a joke because of all the guys that join just for free advice on their special tags. I was making light of the situation is all. Mashel from what I've heard is an overhunted location not far from where I live.

It is almost all Hancock property.

[wormfood]

I hear the hunting is good when the tweekers are in season.

[summit creek]

It is almost all Hancock property.

no its not you could hunt the unit all season and not tuch hancock property and still not cover all of it you have all the elbe hills which has big bucks and bulls plus theres a big chunk of national forest to hunt

[trophyhunt]

If you have a hancock permit you can hunt deer in the rut up untill the day before the rifle elk season starts. I will put in for that tag when the rifle elk season start the latest in the cycle, I think the latest rifle has started is around the 11 of nov. That's give you a great tag for rutting blackies on private property.
