There have been sightings of two different Griz on the divide between Wisdom Montana and Leadore Idaho. One is a sow with an orange collar and two cubs. But don't try to verify it with F&G........you know the story.
What is the time limit when responding to a post before it is lost? Getting POed when I spend time responding and then get the "not qualified and have to sign in" which I did, again, but then all is lost. Of course us old farts that only type with two fingers cannot keep up with the geeks. Geez.
The weather was forecast the day before to expect 4-6" of snow. I drove over the pass about six hours before the plane went down, it was snowing then. There is a 24 hour camera on Lost Trail Pass that shows weather conditions on the net.
To answer your question correctly it would be nice to know a few details.
What animals will you be hunting, primary and secondary?
What do you use for camp, trailer, motel, base camp tent or spike camp?
How far from a road/vehicle do you plan to hunt?
Those are for starters as clothing/boot...
It is interesting to read the thoughts of some that differ from us who spend lots of time in the woods observing animals. All I can do is shake my head in awe.
