Experts,
I haven't been able to take much leave and scout the Northeastern areas I hunt. I'll be in GMU 101 between Sherman Pass and Sherman Creek Wildlife Area from 29 September and 8 October.
Is that too late to be hunting for berries? If not, on what elevation should I be focusing?
I've killed a bear and believe myself to have reasonable understanding of them but not specifics on what makes them tick this time of year.
Add-On: I'm hunting the muzzleloader deer season (not great) and I'm considering bringing the .25-06 in case the need for a 175+ yard bear shot becomes necessary. Is that foolish? If so, for what reason.
