Good luck get to it before they start eating you alive. 4 Grizzly bear mauling’s in the last few months. They have no fear of humans because they don’t get hunted here. I have a 4” 44 mag with 280 grain hydro shocks and bear spray, the 44 is to put myself out of my misery as I’m being eaten alive.

Go luck with that strategy in grizzly bear country, where you’re not allowed to hunt them and they have no fear of you.

We just have black bears around here. They are pretty skiddish. This one in my backyard is probably only a year old.

Interesting, I typically carry a 10mm Glock, because it will at least deter a bear or big cat. Grizzlys are super rare here, just black bear. I recently added the Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan 44 mag 2.5" barrel as my Elk hunting sidearm, I really like it. Not too many animal attacks either but lots of tourists driving their vehicles off the jeep roads to their death... and almost ski season so the skiers can rack up a self inflicted avy toll...
I had general dear, elk and black bear tags but didn’t shoot anything. Saw a bunch of 2 point mule deer and one small 4 point whitetail. Spotted two nice mulies 24”-26” medium thickness about 30 minutes before sun down on the final afternoon of deer season last Sunday about 700 yards away, just below the top of the mountain on the far right (RED ARROW) in this picture. In the red circled there are 7 Bighorn ewes.
Tried to put a stock on them, got to within about 500 yards then spooked them and went up and disappeared.
Probably better that I did shoot one of them, I would have had to find and gut it in the dark with a headlamp alone. Very dangerous lots of hungry grizzly trying to fatten up for hibernation right now.
Behind those mountains is the Thorofare valley and Yellowstone, the most remote area in the lower 48.

Did you get a bull this year? I read something in one of your posts about going to pack one out.

last week we packed out one taken second season, dropped on a hill so steep I was almost crawling uphill for an hour to get out... Nice Bull though,6x6 scored 307. My buddy and I expect to get a couple more next week.

Nice bull. Access to private property makes a huge difference. Lots of game here on private property, right off the side of the road, all you can do is watch them. Public land hunting is a whole different story.

Same here. I hunt both seasons. Once they herd up and migrate, all bets are off.
