Did anyone draw Sherman?
« on: March 11, 2015, 10:52:35 AM »
I drew it and was wondering if anyone here did?
I am still not sure if I can go. With the nice weather there should be bears everywhere.

Received my permit today. Sometimes, but not this time, some permit holders get a map of likely spaces where bears have been a problem.
The snow should be gone and the plant life should be blooming by May.

I didn't draw but I really wanted to .  Does that count?  I have the time to go, don't care about the commute, and know exactly where to hunt.  Tag me in!!

We had a foot of new snow up on Sherman a week ago. I got 3 inches here at my house. We'll have snow in the high areas when bear season opens. Bring chains to be safe. It's been really goofy for weather...
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............

When I had chip trucks, I went over Boulder Pass everyday for 5 years and I always saw the first bears in May. One year, I saw 22 up there.

Sherman has some great bears. I've never hunted spring bear but fall it's my playground. Plenty of great denning areas too. It's been a crazy year but I'd be checking it early just incase. But it's not too far for me
