May 1st but don't bother, there are a lot of people that don't mind the risk. That thing is picked pretty clean by the 1st. :twocents:
That's a fact!

And yes its picked mostly clean. The WDFW roll through the flats and pick up all they can find. Some go home with them, the rest go in to the shed sale. :bash:

There were several rigs parked along the highway with nobody in them, probably hiking in and looking around I was guessing. :dunno:

Fyi... a guy was spotted down in the mudflow on Wednesday afternoon. Game warden was called but was to late to catch him in bottom. Game warden took down all license plates that where parked on the side of the hwy. he also said that they are guna start watching it more because of all the calls they have got this year..... I wonder if the guys that go down there before may first start elk hunting a month early?
did you spot the guy ?? and are those two offenses really in the same category ?
also the whole thing where the gamies harassing people parked along the highway needs to stop..parking is not illegal..walking across the road is not illegal..shed hunting the Margret is not illegal..neither is hiking..or yote hunting..its amazing how much money is spent "protecting" the mudflow...

RCW 77.15.230 WAC 232-13-050.3
The above RCW states "(1) A person is guilty of unlawful use of department lands or facilities if the person enters upon, uses, or remains upon department-owned or department-controlled lands or facilities in violation of any rule of the department."
The WAC states it is illegal to violate a posted sign on WDFW lands, such as a no access sign or a sign saying open during daylight hours only.
It is essentially WDFW lands form of trespass.

Im not saying im gonna go in there before it opens i just say dont post that you will get points for turning someone in when you wont. Thats not what the point reward system is for.
if its just a trespass violation why do gamies act like its murder ?? i hear/witness stories every year of gamies gone csi doing their best to prove everyone up there is making tracks on the mudflow.. idk if they just know they can maybe catch people (they dont catch that many) or what but i see more gamies on 504 this time of year than any other..i feel like it would be easier to poach a big bull than it would be to snag alil ol shed :dunno:
idk i guess i just cant get over the idea that tax $ is being spent more to protect dead bone than it is the elk themselves...yes i know its for the "health of the starving wintering elk" but..they dont care about all the other elk a few hundred yards north or south ?? a mile or two west ?? what about those elk ?? hmmmm wait they dont make tourist dollars off those elk so who cares right ?? ohh wait..these are the same elk they are going to let wolves one day eat ?? mhmmm...that makes sense
if they really want to protect the elk make that boundry alot bigger...so people wont even be tempted to go onto the flow
sorry..had to get that off my chest
