Post by: Gumby98366 on May 12, 2011, 02:14:56 PM: @Jess, can you text them to someone else?
Maybe they can email them back to you so they can be posted.
I'd be glad to assist :)

Post by: jess on May 12, 2011, 03:14:49 PM: campmeat check those new clearcuts on the curlew side with the grass growing like it is...
Title: Re: sherman bear
Post by: CAMPMEAT on May 12, 2011, 03:19:10 PM: The ones going to Empire ?
Title: Re: sherman bear
Post by: jess on May 12, 2011, 03:22:10 PM: yeah.... Cause the bears are eating the grass along the roads and are hard to get a pix of when they are a black blurr i think the clearcuts would be your best bet to get a good picture....
Title: Re: sherman bear
Post by: CAMPMEAT on May 12, 2011, 03:30:24 PM: Ok. I'll go up there and see. I've got a real good camera, so we'll see. It won't be till Sunday though. I'll do some calling and see if I can get some nice pictures.
Thanx Jess.

I only believe it if I see pictures. I went over Boulder today and saw 1 coyote. Were the hunters you talked to today from Ellensburg ? LG was gonna get ahold of me but didn't.
