Congrats Willie, great story and pics.
Handle every stressful situation like a dog. If you can't eat it or destroy it, piss on it and walk away!

He sure looked comfortable all curled up like that, hope I go that way, with a good snooze, lol.

BTKR,

Congratulations, that is a great story. I have dreams about coming across sleeping bears and I can hear them snoring but it has never really happened to me yet.

My brother in law who is mostly a hiker, not a hunter, came upon a bear sleeping and snoring in a clearing once and his dog ran right up and woke it up- bear went one way, dog went the other. It goes to show how hard they can sleep at times.

Thanks for sharing a great descriptive story with good pics. They are a lot of fun to read.

Dean
