You ever get pics?

Wow!!!, grizzlies go outside their designated areas. Who would have thought that could happen? :bash:
And just like that the grizzly bears migrated to within a few miles of Twisp WA-“This is a natural colonization,” said Fitkin. “The bears are naturally immigrating.”

What’s he in, a stock pen?
Pretty sure they use it for collecting hair samples.

He might not realize how close they are, a lot of folks up there have no clue about how often they are passing through.

I had a bear roar at me, very very loud, but I didn't lay eyes on it so I won't say it was a grizz roaring. It was about 75 yards away and in thick blowdown timber, our scent was wafting that direction.
I didn't see much black bear sign while in this grizz's core area.
My hunting partners were loathe to hunt there, especially after the roaring. I was probably a bit too cavalier about it in retrospect.

The only difference is this tooth fairy collects the whole human and doesn't leave money under the pillow.

To not believe the griz are there full time is the equivalent to believing in the tooth fairy.
The only difference is thistooth fairyGrizz collects the whole human and doesn't leave money under the pillow.

Anyone know if they have been spotted as far south as Bead Lake?

Grizz have been in 113 for years. I’ll bet they move around a lot like the ones with the GPS collars affixed.

Pretty sure I seen one a few yards north of 105.
They're in 105 for sure, and 111.
I also know they're in 101 but haven't seen one myself, reliable witnesses have seen them though.
I don't spend a lot of time in 117, I can't imagine them not being in 117 though. I'd be shocked if none were in 117.

Per the gps monitor there was at least one in 117 in October :chuckle:

- I remember when WDFW was looking for who shot a grizzly only about 10 miles north of Colville in 111, they caught the guy
- A friend had a photo that his sister took of a grizzly in the back yard of a home a little north of Deer Park in 117
- I saw two yearlings running together in 105 a few years ago
- I know of 5 grizzlies seen at one time in a field in 105 by a reliable knowledgeable source
- I was told of trail cam photos that were taken of a grizzly in 108 a few years ago

Any reports of them being in the Colockum?
Not that I’m aware of.
