Wyoming black bear

(resident)Yes, I have had seasons where I bought a tag and the mortality capped and closed the season in two weeks.
Ya the dang season is so weird. Doesn’t seem like there is much for sow mortality this year for whatever reason. But I agree it changes fast. Good thing the license is valid in the fall as well.

We just went up for four nights and didn’t see any bears. Did see proof they existed. Maybe saw a wolf but that could be my own bias to want to see one. Lots of deer, elk, and moose. It’s cool to see the mature bulls already with brow tines and their beam starting to grow.
 
There is plenty of public for you to access. Private too if you know people. Terrain is mostly break like country. Big draws with water in the bottom. Before fires it would be green pine in one side and sage or aspens. But fires have changed the landscape significantly.
Thinking of making a solo trip this week. How was it?
 
I would go again. We didn’t see any bears. Did see a wolf (close to CO). My buddy went this last weekend and saw lots of fresh sign but no bears.
 
Someone is. Last night the quota was at 5. I’ve yet to see more than tracks and poop.
I saw that too.

I came across a couple of hot piles last weekend. Missed them by maybe 30 minutes. Going on Friday and starting my hike in at 430 should help
 
PooF look across WY….. it’s a one month hunt. Guys can’t tell a sow from a boar! Season closed before you get to June. Keep driving to Idaho where you can at least plan.
