Can’t find any information on the City of Los Angeles PWD land north of Lone Pine. Is this public or off limits for a Tule hunt?
CA Elk public land?

I should’ve clarified, I saw a ton of fugging elk and want to know if the PWD land is public or if it’s a pipe dream.
You need a tag and that tag is one of the most coveted in the state. Even with max points it’s less than 1% draw odds. Everyone has seen those elk and everyone dreams of hunting them.
Almost all of DWP's land is huntable...Like has been mentioned, getting the tag is the problem.
They are required to allow access on the leased land. I drew that tag and every landowner I talked to allowed me access. In fact one rancher told me "I'll let you hunt but you have to gut shoot 5 before you shoot yours"... he was kidding. The elk cause a lot of damage. That was in 2005... not sure if things have changed much. I'm going to draw that tag again... just to piss everyone off. Good luck. Ed F
Im certainly going to keep putting in for a tag every year. In all my years driving up there I’ve never seen elk. If it happens great, if not I’ll just keep applying and hope that I can find them again if the time comes.
I have seen a herd east of Lone Pine in the desert area between the river and the base of the mountains. Good luck.
its hard to not want to hunt them once you see them for the first time. One day I hope to have that opportunity.
