Title: Hancock Snoqualmie
Post by: grundy53 on August 05, 2011, 03:26:09 PM: Haven't been up there in awhile. I was just wondering if it's shut down for fire danger? I doubt it with the summer we've been having, but I wanted to check before I drive all the way there in the morning. Thanks.

there were no signs posted there, but i dont know if they post them anymore sense that gate is no longer in use. :dunno:

i planned on hitting the county road tomorrow and biking it. so knowing if the signs are posted would be nice before i make that drive.

Been talking to a couple people that hunt/scout the area regulary and they have all said they've never seen so many bear hunters hunting the tree farm as are this year.

Yeah I was in there today. There was quite a few people but it still wasn't too bad. Especially compared to land thats open to all vehicles. I didn't even see anyone until mid morning.
