Absolutely yes; and it is not GMU530. It is GMU501 Lincoln.

I expect any other ownership that is open to the public within GMU 530 will have more hunters than ever before.

Correct as I understand it, no walking in without the permit.

Post by: Alan K on July 25, 2013, 08:25:19 PM: Lots of ground on the south end of the unit. For some reason when people think Ryderwood they think Pe Ell / Boistfort, but there is a bunch of ground, including state land, in the south end.

Correct, any Weyco land in either treefarm covered by permits is closed to any kind of access unless you are a permit holder.
