West is one big patch of bear habitat, east is spotty.  The best place is where you have access in those habitats

Never hunted the west, but the northeast corner of the state has ALOT of bears, and a bunch of color phrase bears. Power Lake, Kelly hill, huckleberry all great bear areas.

I see tgomez made a good post about bear areas. I'm a retired Army guy just moved from Alaska to Spokane and will go look for some bears in AO tgomez posted, good info. :tup:
War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

I would bet more bears on the west side, but they are easier to see on the east side. And, more color on the east side in my opinion.
