I'm also curious whether the bears are asleep yet.  Especially in 460.  Want to try my hand at calling in cougars and yotes and would rather not call smokey in.  And no, I don't really expect to see a cougar, but a guy's got to try...

In the kettle range near the top. Hoping that dude was heading to bed. It was a couple days old.
May my presence go unnoticed, may my shot be true, may the blood trail be short.

Amen

Had one pull a beaver out of a trap yesterday during the day just outside of Arlington.  Second time I have had this happen.  The set was on a small dam and I am pretty sure the beaver was still alive.  Guessing the bear went to cross the dam and found the live snack.   

And he thanks you for it.  :)
And he was still out on Thanksgiving.  I had set one out for him Wednesday night.  The guys duck hunting the place found the fully stipped skeleton Thanksgiving morning.  Then he busted ice that night near the trap where he snagged the beaver from the previous week .   Hopefully he got enough corn fattened protein supplements to go take a nap.
May that for which I prepare never come to pass.
Don't Tread On Me!
