You are not helping sir  :chuckle:

I take it your brother is a faster runner then you  :chuckle:
I think I could still take him in a 40 meter dash but after that I'm screwed.  Luckily he is REALLY proficient with firearms :chuckle:

25% of adult age bears do not hibernate on kodiak.  This year is a mild winter so more bears than normal are out.  Not gonna lie, it concerns me :chuckle: I am not a fan of the big bears.  An Island air pilot had some clients a few weeks ago that said they had a bear chasing goats around  :yike:

They will go right over you.

:yeah:
I just watched The Reverant this weekend.  Watch that if you haven't, that will get you ready for the trip.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

In BC heavy griz country we slept with our .338's loaded next to us.  The unarmed guides in next tent laughed and said you won't have time for those if a griz wants in.  Very comforting.    Slept best when we had animals down as we knew the bears would be on the gut piles.

Are the brownies really out in February? Don’t those bears on Kodiak sleep?

That settles it then, when I do get up to Alaska for Sitka Blacktails I’m definitely going to POW

Good luck! Hope the winds lay down for you!
My interpretation of the rules are open to interpretation.
Once I thought I was wrong but I was mistaken.
