Post by: mattaylor81 on April 23, 2010, 01:16:55 PM: I will be camping there the weekend of May 1st. I will be driving a Red 2008 Dodge Ram TRX4. If you are planning on hunting that weekend I may try to find you and see if you have any calls left. By the way, is that campsite crowded this time of year? I have never been there before.

Looked around up that side a little, found some peels, droppings, and a track of a small bear.
Somebody aught to put one down soon.

Both are right next to the road, cannot miss them if you drive/walk past them....
