I might go back for it. Trouble I moved the scene into the thick stuff.
I remember I did this a few years back. I went back to check the scene and grabbed the skull, but it was left mid May to late June. It was picked clean and chewed up. I had to find the pieces and glue stuff back together. Other than rodent poop it wasn't too nasty.
This time (a week later in April) I imagine it will be peak-rot and I'll have to go in there with a saw and go to town on it.
And it's going to be a bit scary since it's in the thick and I can't see to far around me while I am working... not dry either so I won't be able to hear anything coming. I'll be by myself to boot. Something might be close by guarding it.
Any tips? Make a bunch of noise, fire a few shots? Nose plugs?
You have the best posts! lmao. What a story, I followed it for years. Congratulations! Thank you for taking the time to post the way you do, they are a great read every time. May the MRS. heal fast.

Congrats on getting the bear that wanted to eat you!

I recovered the skull without incident. I don't think any large preds were hitting on the carcass. It actually didn't smell half bad. I'll post up pics of the finished product when I get around to it, but I think for now it's going in the freezer.

Haven't had much time to edit the full video together, but figured I would toss up a little trailer
