COWEEMAN RESIDENTS ARE HOT !!!!

[BOWHUNTER45]

A buddy of mine just called me this morning .. They still had a tag to fill and got it done around 8am this morning ... When they woke up this morning they were reading the local paper Kelso and come to find out the local residents are disgusted on how many elk carcasses and gutpiles their were being left off the sides of the roads and in the middle of the roads ... now its hard to say if it is whitemen or indians but either way I think it is disrespectful to all residents and other hunters to practice such activity... This leaves a bad taste in everyone mouth ..He is bringing me the paper home with him so I can read it ..

Good luck with that....   

This issue is the same in my mind as beer cans and other garbage being left in the woods by all users.  Unfortunately, it is easy to point to a single user group as responsib;le for this garbage.  Seems to me the carcass weighs a lot less going back to the woods than getting it home, why can't people at least drag it off out of sight?  Just frickin lazy!  I had to launch my boat past two deer carcasses laying on the ramp at Borst Park one year.

Na, just joking.  Now I'm gonna have get up from this chair at work and rustle me up a newspaper to see what all the commotion is about.  Btw, did your son fill his cow tag yet?

Did find this artical, is this it or something different?

Yeah, it is getting pretty bad around here.  I don't blame Weco or surrounding Timber companies for locking their land up.  Just about every gate at the end of a paved road is loaded with trash.  I guess thats better and easier to clean than off a landing way out in boonies!

I can't imagine why people wouldn't enjoy seeing this right in the middle of the road?

Not sure but I thought the post said he moved them off the road with a shovel

That's what he said initially, then on page three he changed his mind.

Yelm, nice job on the cow.  I really hope you guys pushed the gutpile off to the side of the road and didn't leave laying in the middle as can be seen in the picture.  Spur road or not, just common courtesy

They are trying to completely clean out that unit...  Sad really....  Why are they doing this, is it WEYCO's lobbying?  It is not management, there's plenty of feed in there for the elk.

Yes Weyco is pushing for the increased numbers. And Olympia is buying into the lopsided numbers.

NO I LEFT THE GUTPILE IN THE SPUR ROAD!!

  my bad just what I remembered. Didn't realize he was a water head!

gutpiles their were being left off the sides of the roads and in the middle of the roads ... now its hard to say if it is whitemen or indians  

Or Mexicans, Asians, or black people?   

[Fowlweather25]

  why the h&ll does it matter what friggin race they were? Is it worse if one puts it there rather than another?

[Arteman]

Just read the paper, it has more to do about the ethics of the timing of the hunt more than anything.  Only thing mentioned about gut piles was that the guy that found them said they was so close to a paved road that they had to been shot from it.  The article has to do more about the fact that the timing of this late cow hunt being the worst time of the year for pressuring elk, and also the fact that he found fetuses in both gut piles.  he thinks the hunts should be held earlier in the year.

[lokidog]

I could see an argument being made for bad timing and stressing the herd more but fetuses in the gutpiles?  Who cares?  Two months ago those same fetuses would have been in there, just a lot smaller and harder to find for someone with, apparently, way too much time on their hands.
