Better Get a bear tag, $350 to hunt in the spring time. They are out I seen a few last week and my buddy was 40 yards from a beast last night but the wind swirled on him. I spend 48% of my time in Gallatin Gateway and 52% of my time in wy
let me know if you can break away for an evening an extra set of eyes is always nice I will be there the 28-14 & the 22-3 I will be bear hunting every day unless I tag out I will head back to Wy earlier. Fishing is great on the Gallatin fish are not huge but they are not shy. I caught a 27" brown out of the gallatin a couple weeks ago. The Madison can be good but its more of a 30 Mile ripple in my opinion. If you like to hike Hyalite and all the spur trails are really good trail not to steep and well maintained all year. Truman's Gulch is a good hike but allot steeper Same for Lava Lake, Storm Castle, Asbestos, and Deer Creek. S. cottonwood is a good trail but not much to see until you get up in there a few miles. I wouldn't worry to much about grizzlies until you get south of Big Sky. I have only found a few grizz tracks in the Canyon and The main trails Have so much traffic you don't see much of anything but people. Lots of good country around there
