what time ya headed out

[EastWaViking]

too hot to be thinking about hunting a greasy ol' bear, for me!

Good luck if you go!

[BK Dave]

It's soooo hot I don't even want to go to my spot and throw rocks at the bears!!
....joking I threw rocks at um Sunday

[LongTatLaw]

Got hung up in Central Oregon so wont be back in WA until pro 2-3...but plan to try the last 3 hrs of light scouting elk spots and carrying a bow for bear self defense...lol 

In this heat I might be tempted to let him chew on me a while instead of killing him and having to drag him out!

My lazy brothers want to sleep in so not leaving till 5am.    Im bringing the camera and hunting uphill from the truck.    I will only shoot one if it can be back to the truck real fast.  If not will try to scare the hell out of my brothers by seeing how close I can get one to come in.  Got three big coolers ready to fill with ice on the way up just in case.  Greasy bear sounds to yummy to pass up.  F'n stoked to get out there and do some calling (with my new calls), pick some berries, scout for elk and get some exercise.

5 am sounds a little late, if i don't see anything by 10:30 im done thats why im leaving around 2:30 so i get all the morning light, it will be a small window but im not gonna hunt the heat. bears will all be laying up any way i figure

[Kain]

Yeah might not make the morning hunt but we are staying till Sunday so we will have the evening hunt and the next morning.

On the road at 1:30 to be at my spot by 4:30.  Then it is uphill hiking for 5 miles and 2500' of elevation gain.  Unless I spot one near the bottom of the mountain.  Please God please.  Good luck all.

Your WILD MAN 5 miles in with heat like we've had, not this guy.

I'll wait for at least 70's as highs before I get out there, but to all you that are heading out good luck and have a safe hunt.

I've had good luck on hot days hunting the evenings.  It cools down so nicely and get's em roamin' 

[rasbo]

cool creeks on a steep drainage makes for some good places for Mr bear to cool off and still rumage..not till it starts to freeze for me
