Title: Wenaha spring bear
Post by: nwhunter on April 16, 2016, 08:54:02 PM: Anyone have a wenaha tag.? Wondering what the snow is like and how the green up is coming along. Usually mid May is go time but it has been pretty warm a few different times this spring so curious. Probably be some turkey hunters over there that can give a report....

As for snow on the Pomeroy side the son was up in the mountains yesterday and he said he turned around between Stentz Spings and Clearwater because of snow. If it's the section of road I'm thinking of it drifts in pretty good. Looking at the forest from near town the snow looks patchy.

It was 35 and pouring rain Saturday where we were at. Wow. :tup:

Good luck on finding the one you want. Looking for size or color?

Just off the 40, headed out Hard-to-get-to ridge. No bear tag, just may have an opportunity to go there this weekend. And then up to Mt Misery/trail head a bit later. Thinking about a run in the Wenaha.

Post by: nwhunter on May 22, 2016, 10:21:50 PM: Any new road reports for the wenaha? I have a couple days I can hunt this next week but not enough to go in at three forks so hoping I can drive in on skyline and hunt from the top. Heard you can get to Godman but wondering how much farther towards the west a guy can drive. Tks
