Saw a bear!
« on: September 05, 2011, 04:49:55 PM »
So I took the family up little naches for a drive. We went to the end of 1905 and I got out and looked down the hill to see a bear walking through a clearing. I ran back to my rig and grabbed my weatherby but never saw it again:(. The kids and girl had a good time and we found a few black caps too.

Wow....talk about blind luck. Next time don' t leave the rifle behind I guess. Did the kids get a chance to see it?

My son spotted one earlier this season.. We stalked him... It was an ugly, tough, stalk.

After all the sweat and brambles - we never saw him again. Phooey.

Still, all in all, it was an awful lot of fun!  :tup:
