Great job,  all I got today was bug bites and a nice hike.  Lots of sign,  but too hot I think for any success.  More of a scouting trip and good walk anyway!

Congrats on your bear. Way to put him down. I heard some disturbing news last night from a friend of mine in Skykomish. It seems to guys he works with shot 2 bears and couldn't find either of them. It's my belief that if you are going to shoot any animal let alone a bear you better be able to make a clean shot. If you can't make a good shot don't take it and wait until you are in a good position to be able to. Just disturbing to me sorry if I jacked your thread Granola, and nice bear.

The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

Congrats on  a great bear.. hopefully my brother and I can duplicate that experience tomorrow morning. :brew:
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.
