Title: Lots of berries
Post by: jamesjet on September 05, 2009, 08:42:44 PM: Up 410 today towards Mt. Rainer. Tons of berries
about 4500' but no bear sign whatsoever. A few piles
of scat but I am pretty sure it was coyote. Berries are ripe.

Look at old clear cuts with lots of rotting logs. Ants and grubs.....

Ran into some other hunters and they said the same...
