I'll get a photo of my son's bear later, it's a little smaller, but not much. With more light on it, the bear looks chocolate brown. Here it looks pretty dark.
Once again, many thanks to Shane, for making this father-son hunt happen! He knows his bears!

Back to the bear, Is that a WA bear, or Canadain Bear?

He's a Washington bear, from up north of Spokane. Young fellow who posts here occasionally, Shane, guided me and my son. I didn't seem to know what I was doing when it came to hunting for black bears, and was also worried that I wouldn't do a good enough job of skinning the bears for rugs, so I hunted with him. He knows bears, no doubt about that! I learned a lot and we tagged a couple of nice bears.
Dan Yedinak, here in Wenatchee, did the work on the rugs. They both turned out real nice, I couldn't be happier.
Regards, Guy

that was fast turnaround for sure, I am glad i could tag along on those hunts.
I think that cannon on the bear makes the picture better.
great job again!

Decided I really like this bear-hunting stuff!
I was just telling a friend about your adventure with your bear on that hunt. Quite a hunting story. Still hard to believe that three of us took good bears so doggone quickly. Shane knows what he's doing for sure!
All the best, Guy
