I'd say it wasn't my fault. But since I was alone there's nobody to blame! :yike:

I guess my Cac card should work. I currently work on JBLM.
In addition, all current Blue, Tan, and Red ID cards should also work.

:yeah: Correct. Sorry I should have added that, thanks for catching that.I guess my Cac card should work. I currently work on JBLM.
In addition, all current Blue, Tan, and Red ID cards should also work.
Will the TWIC work? It is mandatory at ports and is issued by DHS. :dunno:I couldn't accurately answer that. Gate guards and MP'S only mentioned the ADL and the passport. I would call or email them. Though, id be careful on that too. Talk to LE direct and don't take the gate guys word on anything. Rules seem to vary from shift to shift :chuckle:

The change was supposed to be effective in January, but I suspect YTC waited until after the current recreational access cards expired on March 31 to implement it fully.

I posted this merely as a heads up for everyone. Wasn't really wanting to discuss the hunt itself, but ya, there is a bin full of bad apples out there that flat out rape and pillage the deer. Only thing that saves enough to reproduce is zone closures due to training.Are you referring to employees?

Same requirements on JBLM, gotta take my passport when I take Dad to Madigan. It's odd that an enhanced DL is OK when the FED's only gave WA a few extra months to comply with the National law. You wont be able to fly with them in few months. :twocents:Kind of a pain to get too. At least around here. Closest place to get one is the trip cities

I personally would not waist my points on YTC. You can bed a nice deer or elk only to have the TA closed the next day. Its bad for archery in September when the Japanese are their training. Most all of the TA are closed to hunting. Seen a pissed hunter more than once. I would not eat the meat of any animal off the base either especially the elk. I know where the main herd spends most of its time (enjoyed watching them at night with thermal cameras) and there are 2 areas (3 on the base) that are NO GO due to depleted uranium munitions that the elk tend to hang out around. I've worked in all 3 more than once (before they knew they existed).
Again, I think stricter ID is a good thing. I'm sure 1 tribal card for the truck load will not change.

I knew that bull I killed there in '12 had a weird taste to him! LMAO.

Have you had children since then, do they have third eyes? :chuckle:

I love the diversity of YTC and the variety of wildlife that can be hunted (deer & elk only by state draw). In the time I worked out there there was a bear killed & I know 3 others who since have seen a second bear. I worked with 2 guys who each have killed cougar on the base.

Yakamas' have decimated this once great area and although its known by all nothing will be done so they don't have to admit its a problem all to common around the state perpetuated by those with the "right" to kill anything and everything...

If you aren't part of the solution your past of the problem.
Just thought it was funny someone was encouraging people to apply there when there are few deer and now we learn about uranium enrichment of meat :chuckle:

I'm completely serious in my thought here, I say OPEN the alkali for OVER the counter deer and elk hunting!! Give those few natives some competition, I bet that would piss them off. They opened the dicky unit to elk because the natives were having at them all they wanted, open up the alkali too I say! Why not?
:yeah:
