When I put in for my spring tags, I knew what agency and what companies set the boundaries. You may want to start by contacting them.

they will send you the results via mail, then you will head into one of the dept. offices (which they will give you the address for) to pick up some maps/drop off a check (which they hold until you give the back the key for the gates).

Green Crow also may also give you a map when you go to get the key from them. I got drawn a few years ago, and that was how it worked.

how does the permit to have a guest come with you work? does that person have to go with you and also show Id ect when you get the pass?

ITT Rayonier never had a "guest" permit when I drew. If they go in your rig then their is not problem.

Last year the North Skagit packets came around the 8th of April and were able to pick up the key from DNR around the 13th.

NO!!!! Not sure how a guy is going to have much time scouting or even researching the area with the little time WADFW give us after getting drawn.
Title: Re: has anyone received maps or contact info for spring permits
Post by: KillBilly on April 03, 2011, 06:30:29 PM
Don't panic, opening day is usually very early for the most part. There are usually more bears seen an harvested in late April and may. More grass later and warmer weather make a big difference.

  Second that!  Plenty of scouting to do in april, usually doesn't pick up till the last few weeks of season!

Someone posted on another link that the Copalis access permit costs $100 per hunter not per truck load.  If you take a non-hunter along they too have to have an access permit, but I believe it was free for them. 
Title: Re: has anyone received maps or contact info for spring permits
Post by: KillBilly on April 05, 2011, 04:30:58 AM
It was free for non huntimg companions the first 2 years. Now it costs $100.00 for every human heartbeat.

You can go to this link and get more info or call for support

^ not true, cost is 100 bucks for the hunter, companion permits are free. You can purchase your permit beginning April 11, mon. thru fri. from 9 to 11 am. or one sat. april 9, 9am to 3pm. Not very convinient but thats how they do it.....

I recieved my hancock info today. I will be buying their $100 access permit. I wish you could get into the tree farm before the 15th, but I know I will have plenty of time to find some bears.

A buddy and I got drawn for North Skagit. Have got nothing. Called Mill Creek they said 7-10 days from draw date. Called the Big House today and they told me they were still working out details with timber companies. And they hoped to have something in the mail by Monday.

I have heard rumors that they are not wanting to give out keys because last year to many people were letting others in.

It might just be me but seems they are last minute a lot of the time on stuff. I had some friends who were working on Pheasant Release sites last year. And after they did all the work over at Sedro the DFW dropped the ball on a parking permit from the county.

  Got my key and info from dnr yesterday.  Did some scouting tonight.  Put almost 70 miles on the KLR tonight cruizing the roads.  Pretty cool to pull up to a gate that i havent been able to go past for twelve years and open it with a key and drive right through. :IBCOOL:  alot has changed since I was there last.
Title: Re: has anyone received maps or contact info for spring permits
Post by: ghosthunter on April 12, 2011, 11:25:38 PM
Yeah i got out after work an scouted. Took me a few minutes to figure out how that gate worked. But was nice driving through. No one else around. Drove 6 miles up to snow line. 2 3lb rabbits and a grouse.

I can not believe it is April 14th and I have not received my info. from the State. I wish there was someone I could contact that would care in regards to how the State runs there "business" . If the State had to make a dollar in the real world there "business" would fail in the first month.

I havent recieved anything from the state yet either, drew Kapowsin, got info from Hancock say congrats you got a spring bear tag two weeks ago, but nuttin from WDFW! MORONS!!!!!! :bash:
Title: Re: has anyone received maps or contact info for spring permits
Post by: kibber on April 14, 2011, 10:07:27 AM
fireoff, i have the same letter but nothing from the State. Its amazing to think if you drew this tag and intended on camping in the area (not many areas for that) due to living a long was off you could not leave for your bear hunt because the state has not provided the tags. :bash:

Just talked to wdfw, they told me that our Kapowsin permits were mailed out on Tuesday.  With a little luck we'll get them today.  Still ridiculous that it comes down to the wire like this!
