2021 49 Degrees North Springers

[Bored-o]

I am heading over wed-sun. Looks like the weather should be good. I have a few areas I want to check out, been e-scouting a lot.

One less boar out there. Got mine Thursday. There's some logs down across the road to Calispell peak and I forgot my saw. Lots of good grass out there to watch

Sweeeeeet! Picture?

How was the WDFW check in process?

I'll post a picture when I can, phone does t want to for some reason .

The check process was OK. I called it in at 8am and there wasn't a biologist available in Spokane. I started heading to my folks place in Wenatchee to butcher out and was able to meet with the bio there. She was fantastic and quick.

When you select the picture change the size to medium. Or take a screenshot of the picture.

Wow what a great bear. You did well, real well. I'm heading up tomorrow morning for a week to 10 days. I hope at least see a bear and will hunt turkeys also.
Is there any place that will store your bear meat in a cooler if you get one early and then want to turkey hunt a bit.

As long as you get the meat cooled down quickly, it will last a few days hung in the shade. The nights will get plenty cold enough

Great bear! Cool color.

   Looks like a scrapper.

That’s awesome.  Good size too.  What was the length?

[NWHunter20]

I didn't measure him but the taxidermist was thinking 5 feet or so.

Headed out tomorrow for 6 days. Planning to hike around living out of my pack until I spot something with out Cubs and 150#+. I’m not picky, smaller bears are a lot more tender but I would like a nice spring hide.

They're out. Missed a nice one on a long poke yesterday, currently sitting on one we glassed this morning and waiting for him to pop out. Both bears I've seen first at 930, the bear I shot at yesterday was out in the open at 115 in the afternoon and it was 80+ degrees.

Good to know.

I’ll be hunting all week. Been out a little this weekend and haven’t seen any bears. I’m new to the area so I’m kinda learning it as I go.

Me and another forum member went Friday Saturday and he was able to fill his tag on a smaller cool color cinnamon bear! I’ll be back to attempt to fill mine soon. Off to work..

That's awesome guys are seeing bears. I was over there for the weekend. I only saw a bunch of rabbits. Anybody being spending any time up by Calispell Peak? I was up by there and didn't see anything. Lots of good country.

I think you’re a bit too high for right now. At least for where I’m seeing bears right now. By the time you get back over though you’ll probably be right in em!
