Title: Mountain Grizzly
Post by: Ironhead on October 08, 2017, 10:50:49 AM: Recently spent 10 days in AK chasing Interior Mountain Grizzly's. We saw lots of critters including 12 Grizzly's, Dall Sheep, Caribou, Wolverine, Ptarmigan and an Ermine. I passed this Bear all weeklong looking for a Giant old Boar of which I saw one 4 miles away and moving fast (couldn't catch up). I finally took this guy the last evening I had to hunt. He is an 8 year old Boar with a super light coat and should make a beautiful rug. One of the finest hunts I have ever been on.

Not necessarily. You can roll without a guide if you have a resident family member within 2nd° of kinship hunting with you. Father, mother, brother, sister, grandparent.
