Title: 49 degrees north spring bear tag.
Post by: High country hunter on May 13, 2018, 06:32:30 PM: Buddy and I drew for this unit and are struggling. We live on the westside so we want to make every trip count. Went over first weekend of April to scout and look at different spots. Just went this weekend and did a lot of glassing in high up meadows but haven't seen any sign or tracks. Any suggestions or advice would help out a lot! Thanks

Thank you. Is in between 3000-4000 ft elevation high enough for them? I have been up in the colville national forest off major road.
