Post by: pjb3 on April 14, 2013, 06:45:34 PM: Mine sucked, no sign at all plus to much snow where I wanted to go so figure they are still sleeping :dunno:

How high up are you? A week in a half ago I scared one up at about 2000ft. It was a south facing slope, and on one of those really nice days we had. In the shaded areas there was 2+ feet of snow.

Spring Bear, special draw - Monroe Unit for these guys.

I didn't make it out, forgot my discover pass and didn't want to risk having to deal with a ticket. >:(

Post by: h20hunter on April 15, 2013, 08:04:54 AM: Just fine. Went out for a drive yesterday to just explore. Great weather, some nice views, and just cool overall to be off my feet and exploring.

Post by: liljozie495 on April 15, 2013, 10:21:49 PM: Scouting sucked... Well had kapowsin maybe let people in to check out the areas a day or 2 before the opener maybe we all would have knew what was where and etc. basicAlly went in at 445/5 am today blind as a bat.... Never been in there before found some good things here and there tho, so tomorrow should be better
