Was up elk hunting and got in half of season again before they locked us out. Had to focus on pieces of private property I can hunt. We need rain and soon.

Moving forward, it sounds like the link above is for the new land Weyco bought from Longview Fiber, and not the St Helen's tree farm.

If you call the access hotline number, (866) 636-6531, which is different than the number in the link in the post above, it talks about the St Helen's tree farm and what is still currently open and what is not.
