HUNT DETAILS:
These Spring Bear Hunts take place within the Bitterroot National Forest. These can be a physically demanding hunt at times. The terrain varies greatly throughout the entire valley, from rolling foot hills and flat meandering logging roads, all the way up to some of the steepest and rocky avalanche chutes or a high mountain basin. Spring is a great time to be in the mountains, the landscape literally comes alive with all the new green grasses and wildflowers, not to mention it's an excellent time to get out and stretch those legs after a long winter off from hunting and activities. These bears take full advantage of the warmth and fresh new green food sources that can be found.

The typical day starts early in the morning, either still hunting old logging roads or ridges above lush creek bottoms or natural clearings filled with grasses. Later in the afternoon's they like to set up on a vantage point that allows us cover a lot of ground with our optics, once a bear is spotted then the race is on to cut the distance. Bears are notoriously unpredictable, you never know what the are going to do next or how quickly they change course. Because of this they try to get into position quickly to minimize the chance of the bear feeding into the timber before you get there.
