Wenatchee Area Bears??
« on: August 16, 2008, 07:08:52 PM »
Anyone able to point me in the right direction to find bears near Wenatchee?  I have been several places in the Mission unit, but I have yet to stumble onto any fresh looking sign.

This is my first season chasing bears up here, so any pointers would be appreciated.  I guess my main strategy so far has been to stalk around creeks and thick berry patches until I see or hear a bear.  What should I do differently?

Thanks for your help.
Brett

WArookie,

I just got back from CA on Friday, and I've been out twice in the Mission Unit.  I know what you mean by lack of sign!!!  My usual go-to holes are a bit dry, full of berries, but lacking any sign of bears.  I may have to go hit some Blewett Pass spots or head north.

Let me know if you want someone to hunt with...I'm in Cashmere.

Dont waist your time along the rivers edges, we have killed them all and the river gets cold when u waid accross and tie the rope off. PS. people look at you weird when they drive by

Was that you last weekend ? That was funny watching them try to pull the bear across :lol4:
