Yeah I am not for sure about this year but when my son got this tag a few years ago they only opened one gate to get into the Vail tree farm.  I am guessing that is how they are going to do it again.  So I wouldn't know where to try to go in over on the Elbe side either.

Pleasant valley road and FR 74. Theres some nice bucks in there but the deer density just isnt as high as the vail side.

Yup only one gate.  Been that way forever so game check can see ya. Its a long haul but stick to mainline and youll get up into the 9000series I think it is.  A map will help.  Big area and easy to get lost for awhile. :chuckle: Map makes it easy. I think they open gate around 530am so you can get early start up there!!!  Another good spot would be backside of skook res. Hard to find.
MAGA!  Again..

you cant even get to the gate over past elbe, i believe your talkn about the one up pleasant valley rd, well when it washed out and grew over they didnt clean it up, its been that way for a couple years now, unless they just cleaned it up wich i doubt.... they only have the vail side open, and the game check is at the "Y". but during the youth hunt, the game check is at the main gate, where they let you in at 6 a.m
my grandpa always said "if it aint broke dont fix it"

You can get in through forest road 74 by the christian camp. You can also get in to the natl forest through cinebar.
