Title: Hancock Tree farm question..
Post by: Ldav on December 02, 2011, 08:49:47 PM: Hi,

I was just wondering where Hancock Tree Farms are located. I know about the Snoqualmie one, but do they have any in skagit/whatcom county?

Any info is appreciated, thanks

This is all I know of around here. Click Kapowsin then vicinity maps, it will show White River, Kapowsin and Eatonville areas.

They say that the only gates the key will work is 10 and 11 unless otherwise posted. Does anyone know if there are any other access gates on the north side of the property?

Thanks

They have the Snoqualmie Farm that is in King and a small portion of Snohomish County. White River which straddles SR 410 in King and Pierce Counties. And then the Kapowsin and Eatonville Forests in Pierce County.

Then Hancock has a lot of land which are managed as individual tracts and not necessarily large "tree farms". Off the top of my head I know they have lands in Lewis, Klickitat, Wahkiakum, and Pacific Counties. So I would not be shocked if they had land in Whatcom or Skagit Counties.

So true! Back when I was in Forks and logged for a living, we logged some Hancock land, as well.
