Wash, no I dont live in the Nile, i live in selah, which is only about 15-20 miles theres private land up there but a lot of public land to. Thats where we shot our branched bulls 2 years ago.

Mark, I hear ya. Its a joke out there what there charging. I wish i could find somebody that would say hey i have elk on my place come on out and hunt them, think ill put flyers in peoples mailboxes next year from Yakima to Hanford and ask for permission to hunt. Hows the deer hunting in the rattle snake hills south of the yakima river. My cousin met a guy who said his dad and grandma own gobs of land and said we could deer hunt it. If you ever find any elk hunting land out there, let me know, ill gladly hunt it with you and i have a quad we could use to get it out if the land owner would let us.
