Congrats on filling the bear tag, is there a story that comes with it?

I've started another thread. I'll be home in a bit, and I'll write the story.

I'll throw up a pic though in the other thread.

are you using a tent?  or do you have a tarp?  sorry if I missed it.   I keep going back and forth about tent vs two tarps.

Poacher.  :P  Seriously though, I'm headed 49.6 miles one way for high buck. Anything under 34 miles is just road hunting.

I'm going to hike the pct from 90 to Canada. Lots of side trips obviously. Should be a good high hunt.
