My family and 3 other families spent the night in stehikin 2 weeks ago saw a young(Female) Ranger give a presentation on bears. Grizzly and Black, She said that there are 20 collared grizzlies that hang out between Hwy. 20 and Canada?? I dont know why they wouldnt cross that Highway. I am sure there could be more thats all they will admit.??

That road doesn't mean much to them.   

[jstone]

Ya when she said that i just smurked and shook my head.

[snocobearhunter]

thats just the collared ones i know they have a release site on the south side of the south skagit hwy

Page 61 of the regs sure makes me think we have grizzlies.....KNOW YOURE BEARS!    lol

[boneaddict]

and the fact they post those signs at the trailhead in the sawtooth might indicate, Why yes they do cross the road.

[Gobble]

Yes,
I found sign (bear crap) up Storey Cr in the Teanaway back in the early 90's that was documented by the WDFW

They can tell the difference between black bear poop and grizz poop?    They must really know there crap.

They did a DNA test on the scat and Hair. The crap was the size of a coke can and everywhere, way bigger than most blackies. He had been there for awhile from the piles , I was carrying a .50 cal ML when I came across all the piles, I was cow calling at the time before I stumbled upon it

There are pics (a few years old) at the Darrington Ranger Station of one walking down a dirt road.

I also know two credible witnesses claiming to have seen one (two separate instances) way back in the sticks not far from Rockport. As well as I know them, I don't doubt it one bit.

Didn't a couple of kids get nabbed for killing a grizzly because they thought it was a blackie? It was only a year or two ago. I'd say thats a pretty good indication that there are, or there was at least one in Washington.

Never have seen one myself. Wouldn't mind if it stayed that way.

Couple buddies hunted outside of Cody, WY a few years back. Was a light dusting of snow and they were hiking around looking for mulies. Circled around after a while and came back across their tracks to find grizz tracks following theirs. They looked around, didn't see it, but certainly wanted to get out of that area and quick.

ive seen photos of a grizzly that the guy that took them claimed was up blewitt  pass, he wouldnt give any specifics. dont really know why as we dont have a season on grizzlies here im not sure if i believe him he was way to skidish when we were talking about the photos.
