Will be up there Friday. Maybe we will run into each other and we can check out those calls. Are you bringing any custom calls?

good luck.  I am headed to Mt. Adams on Monday.  Saw a nice bear last year hiking with the family there.  Lots of sign.  called in a cougar to 17 yards back in 2010 up there.

I'm heading up that way tonight looking for a bear. but I have hunted there a ton so I know where some of the elk are. If you see a 2014 white tundra double cab with a canopy. say hi. I think we will be up on the 72.

1 nice buck 10 cows for me tonight up in 653. Awesome spot. Watched them run around and jump in the water all night. Friend was 150 yards from me and I met up with him at dark on the trail, he told me he had two coyotes at 30 yards but didn't shoot them because he didn't want to ruin the bear hunt. They would have seen lead if they ran in front of me. We both agreed next time coyotes go down.

Ya haha that's awesome dude were you guys across the canyon from us? I'm not sure how to get over that way unless you just hiked around the ridge line? Do you see many bears up there? Small world dude....

here and there was there any berries on that side. I have not had time to get over there. been how we just had a kid 11 days ago. there's a trail that you can hike around the ridge to the road we where on. much easier hike that way then coming up from the lake side. plus you can see the hill better.
