Was out scouting elk and hunting bear 🐻 bet the weekend. Saw it grow overnight as we camped where we could see the fire. Tough country to fight fires. We had the kids out watching the helicopters working to slow the spread. I’ll get a couple pics up this morning.
fear no fish!!

Appears to be laying on his right side  :chuckle:

Hope they get it under control...
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

What day did you take the picture?

This is in 166, tucannon for anyone not familiar with the area down there.

Looks pretty small, let's hope it stays that way .  Things can change on a dime in that tinder box called the blues though, scary.
