Here's another picture of the same log. We couldn't find any real signs of a hard hit. I think that bear will heal up.  :twocents:  It wasn't raining, but the ground was pretty wet. Hopefully you can get back on him Sled.

Hoping to hear a good end to this story.  Really hoping you are enjoying a beer right now celebrating a recovered spring bear. 

Good Luck and can't wait for the update.  :tup:

  Well I Just Got Home.  we Picked Up The Trail At 6:30.  Followed The Trail For Another 250 To 300 Yards.  Finally Lost Blood In Reprod And Chest High Blackberries.  We Started Doing Circles At The Last BloodIn About A 100 Yard Radius.  While On The Trail We Did Find More Small Peices Of Meat, And Hair.
  All Together The Bear Traveled 5 To 6 Hundred Yards After It Was Hit.  We Looked For Almost 7 Hours Today And Now It Is Pouring Rain.  We Even Checked Under Stumps And Logs.  It Just Didn't Seem Like It Ever Stopped Moving.  It Also Never Bedded Down In That Distance.
  I Feel Like Absolute *censored*.
  Here Are Some Pics From Todays Trail.

That looks like a dead bear.  :dunno: I wonder if you contacted the local warden could they use their KBD? I doubt it but you might want to try. That sucks for sure.  This is a time when they should allow hounds at least for recovery.   :twocents:

It's Raining Hard Now So Any Blood Will Be Gone Soon.  IM Going Back In The No. Morning  To Look Around Once More.
  The Fact That It Never Bedded Down And The Distance It Went Has Me Very Concerned.
