    Idaho spring bear info

    Does this mean I should bring a saw with me? There were a couple of downed trees but I was able to get around OK on the bike, probably not so much in the truck though. I will definitely throw one in the truck!

    Idaho spring bear info

    since you are in Michigan, you can request the books from Mel and pick them up at your local library. It is usually free to get a library card. If you want to buy the books that works too! https://elibrary.mel.org/ The map links I posted on page two I used quite a bit. It almost seems as if a...

    Idaho 2019 spring bear. First time bear hunter, only had two days in the woods, ~6 days drive out/back! It was worth it and the meat tastes fabulous. He had a white blaze on his chest I should have gotten a pic of but I was in a hurry to pack the meat/hide and get back to camp.

    Lost Park Parka full zip or half zip?

    Yeah, stomach area is baggy and the waist drawstring on mine seems a bit too long. If I tighten it up I have a huge loop hanging out to catch on brush. I may cut it down and knot it... Also the half zip has a double layer of insulation in that huge pocket area (main coat has insulation and...
