Title: Snoqualmie Hanncock Elk
Post by: erk444 on October 18, 2012, 09:11:07 PM: Just curious, can you hunt general season, or is it permit only?

Though I haven't been real successful in finding consistent elk inside the tree farm. Outside that farm in North Bend I see them every evening.

95% of it is private and they will call the cops on you. I did a sewer project up there a couple years ago and tried to get in good with a couple of the locals that had property, but still had no luck at getting access.
