If he has a valid small game license and only shoots critters that are in season. You won't have any problems.

What could he hunt right now without a bear tag? Turkeys, coyotes, ??

Went out this morning. 300 yards down the trail. Behind a locked gate. I hear an ATV. a guy and his 3 year old kid. Pulls right up to me. I say uh I don't think your posed to have them atvs back here. His response ya I know but I came in on a trail. Genius.  I say. You know the gate is locked. You know it is illegal. You are speaking face to face with the person that is doing stuff right. The person whose hard work and effort you are totally messing up. I tell him that I am trying to spring bear hunt. He then says. Well I was headed that way but I guess I will turn around. Real genius. Should have snapped s pic. I know he lives close. There were no other trucks.

yea.  You will get that on the Westside with all the locked gates.  Pretty crumby deal to walk six miles just to see a quad.  Pretty sad that he does this stuff with the kid.  one of my family members was hiked into a gate and a dirt bike came by.  Same deal the guy had his kid.  He tore into him about what a pos he was to teach his kid that stuff.  I would have snapped pics. or filmed it.

Another one I think is real funny is they post no trespass signs on the quad trails leading into privately owned timber farms.  Theres one were I elk hunt.  The home owner came over half a mile from her home and walked pasted the gate I was sitting at eating.  She walked a little ways past and turned back towards me.  After she went back past with a big grin on her face and got out of sight she shoulders her rifle and shoots 5 rounds. this was the opener for archery elk.   Its like they buy the house close by and every acre within 50 mile is theres.

No bears for 2 straight days. Tried some calling and nothing.  The view is awesome :tup:

No tracks no poop, 4 deer.  Seems weird to me

It's still early in the year. I think you'll see a lot more sign beginning in mid-May.

Went out this morning for a while.  Saw some poop and had a couple nice walks.  Saw some deer and got pretty close to a bald eagle, but no yogi's.

Went out tonight.  Hiked 7 miles but just on main roads. A little on grassy spur roads. Dry coyote poo and deer kicking each other with their front feet at dusk.

The report for tonight is there were gates open that previously were not. Some gates still locked. Saw a Blacktail deer on the road no bear prints poo or other sign. Was a different area again for me. The only area I have not been in on is off Doty road. Thanks for the tip that was sent via pm. I sure need em.

Get off the roads.  You will see a ton of sign in the clear cuts and swamp bottoms.  first time I walked through a clear cut in there I couldn't help but step in bear scat.  probably six different piles in the first few hundred yards.  just stick to it and you'll kill one.

Weird weird weird stuff today. I found this while walking a rocked forest road. I can not imagine how or why this is on the road. And I really can't figure out what it is either. It won't crack open. Also I found two scuba flippers. I *censored* u not at the end of one of the forest roads.
