Packed for a backcountry Bear Trip!

I cant think of a wilderness in WA where you couldnt get to the same spot via a different trail in a shorter distance than 25 miles, sure there isnt a different trail that will get you closer to the same spot in less distance?

I can think of 2 that you could easily get 25 miles in.  My high hunt spot is 29 miles from the truck I can get in from another direction in 23 miles but its over 3 passes and a lot harder hike.

I'm gonna bet it's a 25 mile loop or 25 mile round trip.

Where do you put the bear?

I'm going to bet you're wrong.

You guys are cracking me up though with your assertion that we are stretching the truth.

Best of luck to you! Looking forward to the pics!

Don't get sensitive that I am accusing you of stretching the truth. I took a guess and was wrong. Nothing to get worked up about. I think it's an amazing accomplishment that you can make that kind of hike. I do question  a hike that far with meat on your back and your ability to get it out before it spoils, but I make no accusation of you stretching the truth.  I am in no condition to do that myself. If you can do it, all the more power to you. I can't even imagine a 25 mile hike with 100+pounds on your back.

Oh I'm not mad, I don't get worked up on the internet.

We have a pretty good plan on getting it out, and it looks like the weather will cooperate a bit. I'll hopefully have some good pictures to post in a few days. I'm fighting a head cold right now, so that's going to suck.

Good luck on your wilderness - deer scouting - bear hunt. I bet you are worn out after doing 25 miles a day with a full hunting pack. I can barley do 20 miles a day with an ultra lite recreation pack. I have been reworking my hunting pack load trying to get it lighter. Transversing from ridge to ridge can be a killer. Anyway looking forward to seeing your bear.

I'll call bs cause I know where you went. In fact I told you everything I knew about the area

[sirmissalot]

Just tagging along. This is great

[mulehunter]

Where do you put the bear?

       I hope that you find way to save room for all meats and possible the hide........  Good luck on hiking.
