Heading Up to the Blues this Weekend.
« on: April 29, 2015, 09:17:48 AM »
Unfortunately my wife and I didn't draw bear tags this spring, but we are still heading up for a 4 day camping trip this weekend (Friday through Tuesday).  We will be camping in the Lick Creek unit somewhere between the 43-110 road and the 4304-060 road.  I will be doing some turkey hunting and plenty of scouting/glassing in both the 175 and the 172.  I have a white F-150 with a smallish pickup camper on it and will be riding around on a black Yamaha Grizzly ATV most of the time.  Feel free to stop and say hi and have a cold one.  I'll be happy to share any bear sightings.  I may even throw my pack frame in just incase any lucky hunters need some help getting that big bruin out of a hell hole.  Although I may need a little "convincing" if the hole is really deep (a bottle of Pendleton is usually pretty convincing :tup:) :chuckle: .  I had a tag in the Mt. View unit and do plenty of elk hunting down there, so I'm no stranger to the steep and deep.  Good luck to everyone.  The weather should be pretty good this weekend.

We saw two bears in 172 this weekend. Both were black. Both were pretty average bears.  Things were really greening up up-high, so I would imagine the bear activity will be good for the next few weeks.
