29 is going to be a challenge due to the outfitters running a lot of dogs in that country, and a lot of recreational forest use (dirtbike trails etc). When I had asked the IDFG biologist out of salmon, he had recommended a few spots in 21a and 30 instead that he said had good numbers if one was not wanting to go all the way into the north idaho or wilderness units.Currently in 29 trying to seal the deal with a friend and my son. From Nebraska so this is definitely different. Obviously the snow is still up around 9-10 k. If a person finds a nice green meadow that has tracks that lead into it what are the odds those bears return? Seen a ton of elk which is cool but no bear sightings yet.
Beautiful color!I connected with my first bear on Saturday morning! I spent a week in the same unit with a buddy earlier this month. We saw a few but weren’t able to get one killed. Went back on a last minute solo trip because of the long Memorial Day weekend. Was a hell of hike in on Friday only to come out heavy on Saturday, but I couldn’t be happier!

Follow up. It’s been over a year but I figured I owed a response. Unfortunately, we did not kill any bears. Overall, Fantastic trip and learned a lot. We met some amazing other hunters. The country was steep and gorgeous.No questions. Just wanted to say thanks for all the information and advice. 3 Midwest guys heading to Idaho in May with black bear and wolf tags in our pockets. Boots broken in and hungry to help the calving elk. I’ll follow up with a full report when we return.
