That does surprise me in a way, but that has been an ongoing problem, and at least they are letting the permit holders hunt, and I think that's fair. You can't blame the WDFW....that is all Weyerhaeuser land, and they are who has the control over whether it is open or not. Last year I drew an archery bull elk permit for the Toutle and was unable to hunt, not even by walking in. The WDFW was nice enough to restore my points though, so I now have 7 points, and I thought that was fair enough. They can't control the weather, or the private timber companies. But somehow they got Weyerhaeuser to let some hunters in to hunt this year, and that is good. They are doing a good job, let's not bad mouth them.
