Was it fresh, or from previous years?

I was out again last night. I saw a lot of bear damage in almost every area. I was showing the wife what it looked like.
Keep looking!!
I probably need to have some lessons on how to recognize it next time your heading up maybe you could show me what it looks like . :dunno:
The only place I have seen it is down in the creek bottoms, while standing next to trees,  no visible sign from looking down from the ridge....
The trees I saw dont look like they are dying, just have large marks near the base, and all from previous years, nothing I would recognize as recent, but I am new at this.... :dunno:

Sorry guys,
It was from a couple of days to over a month old. Found some last night that has been there maybe two months. So the bears have been out and about for awhile.
Stickandstring next time I see you up there I will show you the damage. You will be suprised that you have been over looking it.
I posted a pic of a bear feeding ---wasn't that fresh enough??????  :chuckle: I think it was in any bear sightings yet. That was on Friday.

That was fresh enough...now if you would have told me where... :chuckle:
I meant the damage to trees, as all I have seen is old, and not visible until you are standing next to tree.
I am just curious about being able to identify it. this season is all about learning for me.
Being new to targeting bears, instead of just carrying a tag "in case"...

So you are talking about bear sign, like torn stumps. NOT timber damage, like peels, correct?

We're on the list :dunno: :chuckle: :IBCOOL:  Anytime now we can expect an email update on location of damage sightings.  Be prepared for the Lincoln A 1st report bear sighting and HW BBQ gathering :chuckle: :cue: :peep:
