    Re: Yalokum access

    I was up there last October and there were no blocks or any road issues. I know someone who went in and got a bear there this spring but not sure how far back the road he went

    Most up to date I got, wish I could help more

    I was up there in early Oct 2021. There was a road block about 35km up. I didn't feel up to justifying myself, so I turned around without speaking to the keepers. I understand they consider it a "wildlife information station" and don't necessarily prevent hunters from passing. I can't confirm that.

    Last I heard is they just write down plate numbers.
    But you can still go in.

    There was a little hippy colony set up along the road in. They had a roadblock and wanted to know your business. They wanted to see a license as well which I always denied, kindly asking to see their badge first.

    seems like a quick way to get some addresses of houses that are likely unattended. Not a chance I’d share that info.

    Agree, no one except CO/law enforcement will see any of my ID/licences

    Re: Yalokum access

    I've been driving in and out the past few weekends, the camp was unmanned each time, although I'm pretty sure I saw them cutting firewood later, they didn't bother me

    previous years I didn't share any info, and they weren't overly intrusive, I'm sure they took down my plates.....but I would carry a saw, I found a tree that was suspiciously downed, and I hide my extra jerry cans in the bush when I park
