300$+ down,

I will be bear hunting this Spring...

Anyone else hunting Spring bears in Idaho?

[Wea300mag]

That sounds like good news not bad. What's $300?

Longtat,
Where abouts are you headed? I'm still up in the air about Montana. The late spring has me worried as the unit I hunt closes May 15th.

[high country]

well guys it has been snowing like mad here. may 15th we will still be on snowmobiles in the bear woods. this is a good year to pass.

[LongTatLaw]

too late for me to pass... Im already invested.

300$ = 150 for Non-res big game + 150$ non-res bear permit + online fee = 310 I think...

as for the snow, thats what Im hearing but I wont be able to get up there until mid-may any way. Do you think they will be hibernating until the snow is gone?

As for where Im hunting, unit 2... Im getting a little assistance from my good buddy Joe...aka OUTFITTER

They'll be out and moving down to the exposed areas.  I will be hunting bear in ID this year as well.  A little on the backside of Mica Peak and the rest of the time over near Avery.  Season goes for a while in that area.

You should be alright Late may, a lot of the bears are already up and about grazing on fresh grass shoots, I heard of quite a few being seen already up here in skagit county.  Good luck with the hunt.

[high country]

they will be grazing.....that is 100% fact. you are going to have  a snowmobile to get to the areas that hold bears....that is also a fact. last weekend we got 30" of snow at 3k feet in idaho, got another foot today.......it is an amazing year!

[LongTatLaw]

Im a little scared fo sho...Im hunting area 2 but thats all the details I can give without killing u...lol

[Head-shot]

When is the season again?

[high country]

this is 2 days ago 3 miles from the pend oreille river at 3k feet

[high country]

this is at 4k ft two weeks ago

[boneaddict]

Gee and to think I kept driving there to go shed hunting.

[high country]

there is still a good foot on the ground in athol....that is as low as it gets around here. the bears are gonna be out on the open slopes....but you are gonna need some special means to get to them.......oh, by the way, it's snowing AGAIN
