Yeah our snow down low was melting but we are getting some more storms this weekend. Up high I got up to my knees still 2 miles from one of my bear spots last week. For the most part late may is the time to come. I didn’t even get bears on camera until late may but this year I’ve got more cameras and I’m gonna get them out earlier. And both big brutes I found last year lived. I had a shot at the black one in fall but was leaving in less than 10 hours for Colorado elk hunting and I still had to sleep before the drive. Of course found him grouse hunting. BUT we have an a crazy snowless warm winter compared to usual. We had hillsides covered in buttercups last month. Actually, the mountain that I first spotted a bear last year was bare just 2 weeks ago but we got another storm that covered it again. I’m planning to go hike around this weekend looking for sheds and maybe hang cameras where I can get into. I found an active bear den so I’ll hopefully know when the bears are starting to come out with a camera on that!
May my presence go unnoticed, may my shot be true, may the blood trail be short.

Amen

Daughter and I drew Aladdin as well.  I know we have snow coming this weekend, but wondering about current road conditions?  With basketball cancelled I thought I might do some early scouting.
