There are signs that say foot and bicycle traffic only and that everything is being recorded.
Our key opens the lock. I was afraid to go in, because I can see the camera and the lock box has an electrical wire going up to it that I feel like sets and alarm off when you open it. Can we go in here?
HELP please!?!

Who is the contact with DNR? I don't have my paperwork, but I'll give him a call if someone provides it for me...
Try the office at Sedro Woolley, (360) 856-3500
They are very helpful there. Let us know what you find out.

So, there's the gate that goes to the dam at Spada... Our key opens it.... it takes you to open areas even though that area specifically isn't open for probably a quarter to half a mile in...

Hunted spring 08', on the 17th day took a 6'3". Drew again 2010, saw a monster on the 10th day at 60 yds- hunting him for 17 more days, never laid eyes on him again. He was a tree peeling machine. In my estimation he was at least 10% bigger than my 08 bear, you know, the kind that makes a grown men cry. Both of those bears were LOW!
I believe you, but I want to check out some virgin territory just in case. Also, I haven't seen a &*@$%ing thing down low yet aside from some sign that suggests I should.

Why do you say no :dunno:.
because you are dealing with one of the most over regulated pieces of real estate that we have in this area. The agencies do not communicate with each other, nor at times can agree on legal boundaries. Call Joe and try and get written permission, when I was in there a few years ago with written permission from another agency I had to have someone ride with me to go down past the gate. sept. 11 changed a lot of what happens around that water system.
I just pulled my trail cams out of that area and the bears are moving good, I will try to get some pics downloaded. the problem I see out there right now is there are way to many people driving and wandering around . with all the activity the bears are gonna get pushed around. if you have an area where you are seeing sign, be it peeled trees ,scat, popped stumps etc, get in hunker down and either try calling or just wait them out. fawn in distress is great this time of the year, and there are plenty of threads on here about how to do it. but then again you get a bunch of people out there blowing calls and they are going to get wise
keep the wind in your favor, hunt the middle of the week , that seems to be when the least amount of people are in there, get in to the area with the freshest sign, hunker down, and concentrate on the last couple of hours of daylight, dont get up and hike out till shooting hours have elapsed.
