My very best guess is, no. There is still plenty of snow around my house in the higher elevations and it's still not passable, not even on our ATV's.. I'm at 2200'. Try and call the lodge at 49 degrees or the Chamber of Commerce in Chewelah.

I too have a spring bear tag for 49DN, I have kept a close eye on the mountain. Still too much snow up there, but have heard of a few bears out  :tup: I'll be up there same weekend, let me know if you need help dragging that big bear out  :)

Sure is with good green grass..  I think if you stay low you would have a pretty good chance of bumping into one... I think next week with the warm weather is really going to get them moving..

May 10th should work unless we have a continued cold front and rain that has arrived this week. I've already seen one fresh pile of bear poo, earlier than ever before. I think the whole spring is a week or two ahead of normal.

We made a day of driving thru 49 last thursday. My dad(81) has a tag so we are only road hunting. Saw lots of Moose but no bears or tracks crossing roads. We will give it a drive again next week.
