Bet that was some pretty cool stuff there! All I saw today was some fresh scat on the road and 2 doe and 2 fawns.

 I think we are hunting in the same spot  :dunno:    If so the bears are twins,  I saw them together last year and again the end of June.     I had high hopes to tag one before the gate was opened to the public.    I've been Hunting weekdays after work but I tried last Saturday morning and there was a tan S10 with a lumber rack parked inside the gate.   Is that you?   The Mosquitos are Horrific back in that spot.

Its a no no win situation for me and Gates  :dunno: I complain they are not open and I complain when they are open ...Lmao I had a huge bear dead to rights the 1st day out but you may have read what happened in my 1st story ..I now wish they never opened that gate ..I used to hunt that area a lot back in the day but since they locked it up I have not been in there ..I went into my honey hole today and I never in my life have seen the feed I seen today ..Everything a bear wants to eat is ripe ...but here again things went south for me again ..I get to the area and park and grab my pack and gun and take about 6 steps and I hear something an air hose leaking  :o I turn and look back at my truck and its over heating  :bash: :bash: So I figured I would hike up the ridge while it cools down and I start looking over the area ..I can see every berry none to man and they all were ripe ..Blueberries - Oregon grapes and Mountain berries ..I am thinking anytime one will be stepping out ..Just as my hopes were high here comes the fog ... :bdid: Sat there for 3 hours hoping it would lift but never did ..but that's O.K because death week is coming .. I love bear hunting in September and when the 10 th gets here I really love bear hunting ..But I know things are starting to happen now but I will wait until after the Holiday weekend and get serious about it  :tup:

Frustrating isn't it, they can be so darn smart when season is on then wham so dumb before season.

I had a family member miss the largest bear I have ever seen at 80 yds one year, saw him three days straight after that but he would not give us agood shot. Saw him a lot of times for several years afterwards in spring and before season opened, but never during season again. I think he died of old age, and the area he was in is now all growed over into a jungle. :bash:

So I had some fun in August chasing a couple low land Bruins around and I enjoyed what comes with disappointment  :chuckle: So as of right now I am packed and ready for my September bear hunting adventure ..It will require a little more work than hunting low . I think I am in shape to crawl down the hell hole I have been a custom to over the years but one can only imagine what I am talking about ..Hopefully I can quit talking about it and dump one in the morning ..I try to get some footage of him rolling down the mountain when that 180 gr drills him threw the shoulders  :chuckle: :chuckle: The berry crop is off the chart up there this year and I know I just need to hang out on the spot and something should take a permanent winters nap  :tup:
