Third season Colorado

UtahJimmy are they still out that late in the year? I was doing some reading on CPW's website and they made it sound like the bears all den up by November.
 
I always get one, just in case…..I tried finding a bear through all four rifle seasons last year and only found tracks, but that ended during the third season. By the fourth season I was taking my rifle for a walk in the snow.
 
We saw one last year during 3rd rifle. Snow wasn’t heavy yet at that point and it was much less than a typical year. Not sure if that affects den timing or not.
 
We often see bears during third season in the mid to lower elevations. I think they are hanging out close to where they will den up but are still trying to pack in calories.
