Good luck, there is good access in lower areas, still lots of snow up high, take a chainsaw with extra fuel if you are trying to get remote, the heavy snow storms knocked down lots of trees this winter. :tup:

Peeps and Twinkies?
Yumm...
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Good luck! Are you hunting a reduced tag area?
A buddy of mine is going to get our baits started in the next couple weeks as long as he can get in where we want to be.

Pretty cool buddy you got :chuckle:   What bearpaw said above the blow downs are absolutely crazy...  We cut one bear track last week...  Good luck with your bait I would have to stash some of those treats in my stand also..

Real friends don't eat the bait that they have for the Bears! That's bear food not fat friend food!

Yes, I don't think I'll make it to the spot I want to, so quads are plan B

Made it home. Found a good spot I think, good location and a long ways off trail. Snow stopped us from plan "a" and "b" but I think it will work out.  Will be back in two weeks
