Post by: turbociv922001 on October 12, 2009, 04:32:56 PM: that would be nice.
he leads me a stray from where they are.
used to piss me off but not now. he put in a ton of time hiking,and scouting.
i know the general area but he has a spot in that area that he gets up way high and glasses for hours into the huckleberry fields. wich i dont know where those are.pretty sure he is gettin way up in elevation.
his second bear was 419lbs.

does anyone in here know some spots in washougal?

Post by: tonymoe on October 20, 2009, 08:40:51 PM: I don't think he is feeding them anymore, one got hit on the road and I think the wdfw finally put a stop to the feeding? I pass the house 2-3 times a day and haven't seen one there this year?

Climb the silver star trail and go to the top (maybe campout) and you will glass bears

Post by: EastWaViking on November 06, 2009, 12:56:39 PM: If he was hit in the spine he would not have gotten back up. Sorry to here about your bear.
Keep trying. He's probably went down hill and into the thickest stuff around to die.
