  yeah i know some, and i know you have done good, but i just dont like hunting in someones regular area.  Good areas are hard to find.

This will be my first season after bear.  But the scouting I have done so far showed bear from 4700 feet down to about 3000.  However, no berries were ready in the area I was in and it was still a main course of fawn and grass.  Found one rockstar spot with about 8 piles of poo in about 200 yds.  Best of luck to everyone.
