I like that you are using the local firewood and the snow. And being resourceful. If your friend needs electrolytes, he can use the ancient medicinal yellow snow. You can glass for it.

I respect your attitude. During my first year of bear hunting, I worked hard for 7 days with no success. The second year, I hunted hard for 6 days and took a bear on the last hour of the last day before I had to go home. Because it's hard, is why it's so sweet when it all comes together.

Thanks man! Being in a good mental state is imperative to a successful hunt in the mountains. Nothing ever goes exactly as you plan/hope and if you can’t stay positive and push forward you’ll never be successful. And you got that right the struggle is what makes it so worthwhile

Hey just a heads up. Its illegal to fly a drone while hunting. IDFG considers it the same as flying in an airplane and you cannot hunt till the next day if you do.

Hey guys great film!! You guys did a great job of documenting the hunt. Just some advice from one bear hunter to another... you guys gotta get mentally tough. Welcome to spring bear hunting. Those were ideal conditions and you should have killed that bear!! You kept saying it was “horrible conditions” and you were just trying to survive. You had a damn teepee tent with a freakin heated stove!! What the hell more do you need? Drop elevation and go kill that bear!! Yea it’s cold and wet but don’t you have rain gear? Get tough. Kill bears!! I guarantee that bear was in the same spot every day and if you would have dropped down on him you would have had a solid opportunity to take it. Also, all that “bear shit” you filmed was not bear shit at all. Bears don’t poop on wide open slopes like that and bear poop looks like human poop or large dog poop. That was all old cow elk shit. It looks like that when they are calving. Best of luck and great film. Keep hammering and learn to push your mental governor.
@publiclandpursuits66583 жыл бұрын
Thank you for the advice man. I’m sure there were some things we could have done different but our whole reasoning for not moving in on him was due to the fact that we don’t believe we would have been able to shoot him in the rain and snow. Rangefinders won’t work in those conditions so we would have had to be right on top of him and most likely we would have busted him out if we tried to pursue him before we could see him with limited visibility. So we thought our best play was to just wait till we got good weather so we have the best chance of not busting him. We agree that he was in the same spot everyday but from what we saw he never came out of cover until late in the evening so moving in during the day would have done us no good. We wanted to be in position in the evening but just never got the opportunity. We could have maybe been on day 2 but at that point we still didn’t know that he was staying in the same spot because we had only seen him once. We had the mentality to move in on him in the bad weather we just didn’t think it gave us the best chance of killing him.
@highcountryoutdoor3 жыл бұрын
But that’s why he’s still alive!! I’d guarantee he was up feeding 80% of the day. Bears love that weather and they’re out all day in those conditions. Going in at the same elevation as you saw him would be the best play. The wind is predictable when you’ve got storms settled in like that and that’s you’re best opportunity!! I hope you’re going back after him!! Sorry not at all trying to sound like a jerk!! Just trying to help give you some tips to have better success!! I probably would have snuck in on the down side ridge trying to keep just under the cloud level for enough elevation to glass him up. Good luck!! 👊🏻👊🏻
@highcountryoutdoor3 жыл бұрын
Gun shoot in rain, snow or sun! Rangefinders will work in some of those conditions but why not get closer anyway. You shouldn’t need a rangefinder under 400 yards. If you do then you need to spend more time shooting/practicing or get a better rangefinder that will work In those conditions!
@publiclandpursuits66583 жыл бұрын
@@highcountryoutdoor no need to apologize for advice man. You made some good points and you may be right! Our thought process was just different at the time because we thought we’d get a clear day because the forecast was clear till it wasn’t. And I forgot to mention one of our main reasons for not trying to pursue was that our camera gear was not weather proof and filming anything in the rain and snow would have been very difficult and we would have risked ruining a $1800 camera.

Or you guy could just higher the outfitter that guide out of there he will put you up feed you put you in Canvas tents and ride you in by mules those stables that are almost across the road from where you guys part is his base camp. How I know this he is a really good friend of mine and I have been up that trail a bunch. There is a reason why those bears are in there maybe because he guess bear trips out of there. Idaho is still a baiting and dog running state those bear are there because of the guide that make his living out of there so be respectful and in joy the public land.
