What did everybody apply for Spring Bear?

[JamesK.]

As excited as Iam I thought I would start a thread for spring bear. I have 5 points this year and applied for Dayton, Blue Creek, and Tucannon in that order. I use spring bear as a good reason to get in the woods and also learn country for my quality elk hunt which maybe someday I might draw(16 points). I plan to hunt from May 6-11 and May 20-26 for spring bear. My work schedule is 8 10's then 6 days off and that's why I have those dates off work. The open seat thread in the waterfowl thread enticed me to start this. I'm planning on going solo May 20-26 if anyone is interested with or without a tag. ( bring frame pack haha)

I just submitted my application.........Monroe, 49 deg, Huckleberry, Dayton, and Blue creek.  Drew Monroe last year, and had a blast.         Good luck!

Good luck, James!  With 5 points already your chances are pretty good.  Dayton seems to be the most productive, but Blue Creek has good harvest results, too (although most of it is private, I am told--do you have a strategy for that?).

Pencil me in for that extra seat!  (I even have a pack board...)

Are we getting 5 choices now? I thought it was only 4. Haven't done mine yet but will probably just apply for another point.

I thought perhaps this was just a test to see who's paying attention.

Kapowsin only

Tried to put my dad, my son and I in as a group. No go.... Apparently there's a two person group max for that hunt..

i only selected huckleberry.  i know it lowers my chances only picking one unit, but thats where i want to kill bear.  rather take out a fawn / calf killer from my own hunting area than from somebody elses.

I'm new to this... Hunted last year's general. Scouted Spring and Summer, saw a few. Didn't see anything the season. Zero points. Picked Monroe, Skagit, Huckleberry, and 49° North. Not really expecting to draw, but WTH...
