KaibabHunter Report post Posted September 15, 2011 I'm assuming u can in ur checked bags. My grandpa actually picked some up up there so I don't have to worry about it. I'll ask the airline tho... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Snapshot Report post Posted September 17, 2011 A hunter was just killed by a Grizzly, in a remote mountain area here in Montana. Up in the Northwest area of the state. Be vigilant if you are hunting in Montana. That makes 3 Grizzly related deaths in this area for the year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sjvcon Report post Posted September 18, 2011 Uh ... hunting alone in that type of environment ... you're braver than me bud. Get a buddy ... give that buddy a Home Defense 12 Gauge with 10 slugs to knock into that rug ... then for good measure get the Ruger Alaskan in .454 Casull. It's simple and compact ... pull the trigger and it goes BOOM ... with a LOT of knockdown. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KaibabHunter Report post Posted September 19, 2011 Well I've been in 3 different areas so far without much to show for it - just a little fresh sign hear and there but nothin to get real excited about.. I had a bull at 70 yards and thought he was comin in but he hung up and ghosted. Put a stalk on 3 small muley bucks but got busted at 75 yards. The spot I tried today was thick timber with small parks and old clear cuts - nada for fresh sign. I've been up to 8600 ft - they must b higher than that. Only a handful of bugles. No black or grizz bear sign yet. I did have a wolf howl where I was last night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unfortunately, I have some health issues, and will probably not get to chase them this year? Good luck on your hunt! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KaibabHunter Report post Posted September 23, 2011 Well I'm done and came home with both my tags unfilled. No rutting where I was at and I covered quite a bit of ground. Kept finding sign that was a week or two old but they had since moved out of the area. I was 30 yards from a very nice Shiras bull moose that I video'd with my phone. Found one older pile of griz poo but no bear sightings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
