Only 2 points, but got my fingers crossed this year.  It's been a few years since I killed a bear, and Pathfinder Jr really wants one too..
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Thanks Saylean and Gutpile, you give me hope. Since I live in Marysville I put in for Monroe and Skagit. I know there are plenty of bears around, I just need to put in my time scouting. I see a new trail cam in my future. 
 

Have you checked the harvest stats for that area WOW!, Spring and fall, it seems like there are a lot of bears !

I think I got 4-5 points. If I recall correctly - the last time I checked that seemed to be about when you got picked. I'll be putting in for skagit and monroe.

I wish I had been buying points on bears when it first started.  Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Monroe was a great unit, aside from the attempted break in on my rig. Green Crow logging really supplied some great maps/advice.

Hopefully this year will be mine or my sons year.  I went with people for the past two years and have had a blast.  Lets see if my luck turns around this year.
