Any gate is a "good" gate. Bear are where you find them, there's honestly not a secret besides putting in your time. Focus more on the "hunting" and less on the "getting" patience and persistence will get you your bear ;)

Be careful where you're hunting on 18.  I believe some areas are restricted  :dunno:

I believe you're right, although I can't remember where the restricted areas are. The gates are pretty clearly marked though, so make sure to read em :) Was up in that area today for a little while, saw lots of bear sign, and possibly even more people including some folks with their kids that though they would offer to tell me what a horrible person I was for hunting and how I should be executed for participating in such an " inhumane activity"  :yike:

Now that's funny.  I hear that a lot too.  I think the north side is restricted up to 90.  Last time I was up there not all the gates were marked

the north/ west side in no rifle .

on another note why come down here your area has WAY more bear, 18 has very low low numbers.
