Title: 3 Generation late night pack
Post by: mountainman on August 28, 2024, 08:40:43 AM: Son calls me late yesterday. Says dad, just killed a nice bear, up in, you know, that nasty brushy canyon we always swear not to hunt again ‘cause it’s so thick, but have pulled probably 25-30 bears out of. Met at trailhead around 9pm. Back, quartered and skinned to truck 1:20’ish.
My son, oldest grandson and I and more memories!
Never hunting that canyon again (yeah, right!😉)

I don't even think we could do that in my area.
Half the bear would be ate by bees , second you opened it up.
Looks awesome 👍👍👍
