I think I missed a pile BCHFSJ! Searching thread titles for 'grizzly' yielded hundreds of threads....most of which weren't tales of adventure....that's why I asked for everyone's help to post links to old stories.
There are many, many more hiding in the archives.
Do you have a link to the original story to go with your awesome grizz??

Few pics of 2017 spring bear hunt. I applied in an area in the Kootenays that I had always wanted to hunt since moving to BC. I was lucky to draw and ended up hunting it twice.
First time was in late April, when a buddy and I snow shoe'd in about 14km in some pretty soft snow for a few days of backpack hunting. We never did catch a glimpse of the bear that was in the area but found about 3-4 sets of tracks from different bears and this one big bear was all around us for a couple days. We had to pull out but I knew if we stayed there we would catch up with the bear. Another member here ended up running into him with his hunting partner a couple days after we pulled out.

Later in May we returned and hunted for about 10 days with 2 different buddies. We had a great time, saw a ton of black bears including a couple really good ones. We hiked, backpacked, used the quad, and spent a ton of time looking at various slides in some great spots. I passed a younger boar in the 6-6.5' range on the last evening of the hunt at about 220 yards in a super green slide after sneaking in on him in the evening. It was a great end to the 10 day hunt, and sadly was the last time I got out with a grizz tag in my pocket. I'll cherish that memory for a long time if it happens to be the last time I'll hunt grizz in BC (remains to be seen).
The plan was to return another week later, but a death in the family cancelled that. Enjoy the pics!
