Title: Checking in from Arizona

Wasn't lucky enough to harvest a spring bear this year but had a great time glassing and calling.  If any of you all are looking for big color-phased bears Arizona has them and the tags are over-the-counter for most units.

Had this big boar coming to the call from across a canyon before the wind shifted and I lost him in a oak flat.  I took this quick picture through my binoculars before he dissapeared under the canopy.

Good Deal...  You should have a blast...  I'll be down the road in 7W.  If you get bored or tag out quick stop by for a beer... we will have a big camp just off the I-40. will be there the entire hunt.

Good to see some cool country.  After chasing Javes down there I came to the conclusion that there wasn't anything in that desert that wasn't pokey.
