Holy Shnikes!  Thats a dandy, would love to see some pics from different angles.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

I'm definately ready, counting the days and watching the weather.  I have a few new areas I plan to pack in to and see whats around.  Probably just wolves though.  No deer, elk, bear, moose or turkeys left in the NE corner.

Nice bear!  Looks like an easy haul back to the truck too.
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'.

Nice Blackie. I am betting that is sure is alot nicer to have that Quad to move his big butt back to the truck instead of packing him out!  ;)

Awesome bear!!! Too bad he is not a Hunt-WA member, that would be hard to beat in the Hunt-WA Head Competition.
