Title: weyerhaeuser closures
Post by: Bowbe8 on August 29, 2013, 07:00:47 PM

Does anyone know if all this rain we are getting, is going to be enough for them to open it for hunting? Don't know much about what has to happen for them to open it.

If they don't open it they're just saying sorry archery guys your not effective enough to remove all of the elk out of our woods. (winston anyway)

They started taking the signs down today and will have their hotline updated sometime tomorrow.  This according to one of their security guys.

Only walk in.  Can't even remember the last time you could drive in during early archery.
