did a little bear hunting yesterday.......
« on: April 24, 2012, 08:15:39 AM »
And it is a strong two weeks early for my area. Everything is either covered in snow, or brown. Just bearly any green stuff. I made it about a half mile off the pavement and hit a wall of snow  everywhere I tried to access. I did spy 3 different herds of elk, but never did see a bear track. I will wait a couple weeks and then go zap my boar.

Here is the only scenery pic I snapped.....

What general area where you in?  I am planning on heading over to Idaho this weekend and see if I can get the dogs on a lazy bear just coming out of the den.  Probably can't get around at all though so I may just go chase a gobbler over there...not sure yet.  Good luck on your hunt!!

Probably try down near Lewiston area, maybe as far north as Saint Maries.
