Lick creek spring bears

[tonymoe]

My partner and I headed east on Thursday night for our first spring bear outing. All in all it was a good trip. Lots of elk, deer, turkeys and big horn sheep. Every body seems to look healthy and in good shape!
Especially the GIANT, GIANT bear we put in the spy glass! Man he was a toad! I named him "frank the tank"!
We just couldn't get to the ridge he was on due to the big white drifts we had blocking the road.
We cut tracks of another big bruin in a drainage, but never saw him.
Like I said, it was a good early trip and hopfully we can get closer next weekend!
Sorry, no blood, just an update!

So far I have not laid eyes on a bear but I am encouraged by your report. Good hunting to you! Hope you enjoy it and can fill your tag with a worthy bruin.

Sweet hope you get the tank.  Ill be headed for mountain view the 17th of may.  Hope there out in force.  Wish i could slip over for a short trip earlier, but drew multi season elk and deer, havent had the heart to tell my wife yet. good luck and happy hunting. 

P.s. hows the tick population doing?

If you spotted frank the tank, why couldnt you hike to him instead of try to drive closer? Either way goodluck
