Went by the ol feeding station and decided to share some pictures. So can I call dibs on the sheds? or is it to early to call dibs? :chuckle:

Nice pics and bulls! 8) Where is Joe watt feeding station at?
-
It's in Thorpe, Washington. (Just past Ellensburg on I-90)
-
i never knew there was a feeding station out there.
-
I didn’t either. I drive by there often picking up or dropping off my daughter at Central. What time do they feed?

NOOOW you TOLD him.... :dunno:
-
They don't post their feeding times. And they feed really far out so bring your binos. It's not like at the Oak creek station. The public can view their feeding but usually the elk are at least 2-300 yds away.
-
What time do they feed?
I called and asked them a couple weeks ago, they said they normally feed around 8-9 a.m.
-
Call dibs on the sheds all you want, but unless you are one of the unscrupuless A-holes that go in there at night and stash them so you can go back in when they open the gate for the law abiding public and get them is the only way you have a chance.
Always see guys with pack frames full coming out of the woods, and only a few small ones pickup up here and there.
Same thing happens at oak creek..

People do that crap?!?!?!?! I was just joking on the dibs. I am planning on spending a lot of time up in the hills looking for them, but i am not going to the extent of trespassing and stashing sheds. Thats just nuts.I didn’t either.

The elk are there all day, just head over and take a look, its at the L.T. Murry entrance.

Yup, heck they do it at oak creek, some guys get caught, but if you ever go there when they open it up for shed hunting, it is like a sceen out of mad max, horse's, 4 wheelers, guys running and in the end you might find a few, but you will see guys with a bunch and all nice one's...

How do you get there from ellensburg and how far is it from I-90?
-
If your heading from Yakima go onto I-90 towards Seattle and take the Thorp exit. there is a big fruit and antique stand on the right side. got to the stop sign and go left. go about 2 miles or so and take a right on thorp cemetery rd. follow it down about 5 miles maybe more till you see Watt canyon rd. there is a old farm building that is white. take a left there and head up the slight hill until you go across a KRD canal and you are there. There is a big metal building on the other side of the elk fence.. Start watching the hill sides. They have been feeding them on the right side a lot where the road heads up into the hills. Good Luck!
-
Thanks for the directions huntergreg. :tup: I think i'll stop in there one of these days when i'm going buy. Will the elk still have there horns mid march?
-
they start to lose them around then especially the big ones
-
If I have a Disabled parking pass would you guys let me at the front of the line. I promiss to not have my motor on my wheel chair. :chuckle:
-
Shouldn't of done that. I know who will be first to find those..
-
When do they open the gates for shed hunting?
-
May 1st at 8 am.
-
i went there on valentines day. saw probably 500 elk, and a group of 4 really nice bulls. have some pictures, ive just been lazy getting them up on here. ill try and do that today.
-
so sense the snow is getting deeper will they get some kind of count on the elk compaired to other years?
-
Dang, I hate when I open up what I think is a new thread and see a response from Coluckumelk. Makes my heart skip a beat and miss his presence on the forum all over again. RIP, Coluckumelk. Sorry, back to your regularly scheduled topic...
