Wyoming grizzlies
« on: April 27, 2016, 10:26:39 AM »
So I'm heading over to the northern part of wyoming for my first time this year and hear a lot about the grizzlies over. So I'm wondering how bad they really are and if anyone on here has anu good stories to share of grizzlies over or around the northern part of wyoming

Ask Benchleg about it!  He had to climb a tree last year because of a grizz. He was hunting elk in the north part of Wyoming, I believe he saw around 3 of them!!

Oh wow! Yeah I've heard of camps getting ripped completely apart but while they were gone hunting haven't heard much about face to face though!

I know everyone jokes about griz crap being filled with bells and smelling like pepper... 15years ago I got the meet the first park ranger to ever use bear spray. I meet her while taking a group climbing in the Teitons. She said it works however you have to be extreamly close. She said 20 ft. She was close enough that when it growled at her she could smell its breakfast, & it almost made her puke. 2c
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

I don't like camping in grizz county, I don't like them.  Wyoming needs to start hunting them if there not.

I can respect Grizz, but I DONT have to like them. That scene in the revanent about made me shizz my pants as it brought back memories of a grizzly in the Bob marshall 2 years ago. He ate my deer heart and lurked around camp for 2 days.

Two experiences for me one in the selkirk  hair raising . Second in the Bob where I had fresh tracks in the mud in front of me in the trail . That one was bad because  I never saw it .

If you don't want to watch the whole thing, skip to 4:00.


And with that in mind, happy camping in Grizzly country.      :tup:

  Is this why WY  requires non res hunters to hunt with a guide in wilderness areas? I wonder.

WY requires a non resident to pay a guide to access OUR national forest wilderness areas because the crooked, lowlife POS guides got together and lobbied the state legislature to create a protection racket. Or you can call it a backhanded subsidy. If I had a lot of money, I'd challenge this in court before any wolf agenda from our enemies on the Left. Those crooks will never get a dime of my money.
