orange for bear?

[Blacktail Sniper]

Answer can be found on page 15 of the hunting pamplet:

"Anyone hunting in an area
that is open for modern
firearm deer or elk hunting
must meet hunter orange
requirements if they are
hunting any of the following
species: Bear, Bobcat,
Cougar, Coyote, Deer, Elk,
Fox, Grouse, Hare, Rabbit, or
Raccoon."

I carry two bright hunters orange handkerchief's - when I go into a 'reduced' visibility area I will tie one on my hat or pack or both...

[washelkhunter]

Always a good idea to wear some orange while afield, esp in the trees and high brush IMO?

[h20hunter]

I agree....100%

Just don't wear black, and you should be fine. I don't believe I've ever worn orange except when required by law.

If you don't know about whether you need orange, there are other things you don't know. Please read and re-read the regs so you do.

I have no problem with questions, especially if regulations are unclear and often, they are and I'm the one asking. But not knowing the regs if you're going hunting may indicate a lack of respect for your quarry and can put our sport in a bad light when infractions are made public.

I was just clarifing, obviously its a good thing to wear but not "LEGAL" to do so,
JUST ASKING

I carry an orange vest with me when I go bear hunting, if I hit the brush, I where it. Too many trigger happies out there not to.
