Post by: SnakeEyes on June 11, 2014, 05:01:56 PM: My dad drew Hangman A Any Moose. I am so excited he drew before he was too old to hunt.

Luckily it's all uphill going in, so bringing your moose out will be all downhill. I think it's $40 per person for the IEP pass.

I most likely wouldn't hike in from star road very much unless you know a good bull is in the area.
the other access is mostly flat on the way in.

Mind sharing that?
I usually go in on Starr, and it is a grunt getting into the Moose country. I go for photo and exercise, no tag here, but really a boring walk in for sure from the starr rd. However hardly ever don't see a moose of some sort.

Post by: Ridgerunner on June 12, 2014, 06:11:13 AM: Big bulls in there for sure. The hardest part of the hunt is over until the bull hits the ground.

I should hopefully be in decent shape after my bull hunt in the Wenaha.
