Beauty of a bear!
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

What a trip, not sure I will ever do that again alone in those mountains, I was at my limit!   Thanks for the compliment, Mike, the hide was really nice!

I should add, from the time I shot the bear till the last load back at the truck, was 12.5 hours. For an older fart (almost 51) that’s rough !  Thank for following along, and if you have a spring bear tag still, go hunt! Lots of bears out there!
