Do some searches in the Bear Hunting section.  Lots of good tips, and stuff to get started. 
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'.

The mountains.  That's where I'd go. :chuckle:  Seriously, there are bears in basically every mountain valley.  Just spend a little time and you'll start to figure it out. :twocents:

Hey Jrabo, I am new to this site and Bear hunting as well. I will tell you from personal experience, that this is a GREAT source of knowledge. I know there are a lot of posts on here but it is well worth the reading. I have not read ALL of them but I have read a lot of them. Some I have had to go back to several times because there is so much to consume. Try to read up on as much as you can first.

I don't think people are going to completely leave you stranded, but you can't expect them to hold your hand and and walk you to the bears.
