Big and Juicy Spring Bear Hunt

Anyone that tried to swim that river right now would likely end up feeding the fish.

This is a poem of wetness & peace.

Well done.

Yeah I was a little vague. Dog panniers is what I was referring to , but I like the idea of the section of pad. Red Hook is so yesterday man .

Gus has an old jacket that I zip him into... still try’s to shoehorn himself into my bag whenever possible.

Agree about Red Hook, Crush from 10 barrel goes down real smooth in the back country.

Love the recap.

Very, very well done and told. I think I need to re-scratch my spring bear itch...

PS- Hank is very jealous!!

Awesome pictures, great trip. Not sure how I missed this, thanks for sharing.

This damn site gets so much traffic these days that all the good threads get pushed down.

Beautiful country, looks like a successful trip regardless of a notched tag.

Really enjoyed the pics. Makes me want to buy a decent camera...and yes, the donuts have to be powdered unless you can find Krispy Kreme. Then it’s glazed donuts all day long.

Thanks for sharing. Really enjoyed the pics and story.

Perfect ratio of photos to words, and great photos at that! Hopefully the bears are on your side of the river come September.

Top stuff, I reckon it'd be bloody unreal to hunt a bear someday, nothing like that down here that's for sure

 

[Lige]

Cool.....thanks for sharing the pics and recap. Good luck in September!

Not sure exactly what advise you are asking, so I will throw them all out. Ruffwear Approach, 1/2 a Thermarest z-pad and either Newcastle Brown or Red Hook ESB. IPAs are over rated.

2nd the ruff wear approach.

Thanks for sharing the great photos. Can't wait for the fall adventure series.

Awesome pictures! One day I'll be out that way chasing bears, hopefully sooner if our cards have been dealt correctly. Thanks for the pics! Gives me inspiration when I finally get out there to take my pup along, I couldn't imagine going hunting all weekend and leaving him at home, he'd disown me.

There's room in the Dodge, but we don't drink Busch Light.

haha ah come on now..... I am trying to get into IPAs but they all just taste like grass I've had maybe 3 good ones out of the 12ish different ones I've tried.
