Nice job Dustin. The boys and I harvested a couple of Cinnamon phase bears this season. Saw a blondie almost pure white last Wednesday. Recognize the area in your picture.

Very interesting leg. Great story! Cheers,
Great story! I hope you remembered to zip back up before heading back to town! :)
Interesting bit about the limp and finding the chunk of lead. Amazing he kept on keeping on living life and scrapping other bears.
Very nice meat haul too. On average I would guess 40% of the animal is meat but it depends on the bear. Nice to see the finished project all packaged up and labelled like that.
Nice work! I've shot a couple black tails on sunday family outings lol.. My 14 year old son was 3 when he slept through me jumping out the toyota to blast a rut struck BT lol...
Bears are tough as ****! Many stories of people pulling other peoples lead out of bears..sometimes happens with deer but not as common..I once witnessed a B Bear pulling himself by his front legs across the highway before Princeton, I have so much respect for bears half of me thinks its still alive and dragged itself to a nice dandelion patch and is building fat for the winter..lol
Until this year Ive always made sausage or hams or other processed products out of bear but this year I was lazy and besides some jerky ground the whole thing and don't know why i haven't before its amazing as ground meat..
Congratulations on a great outing. I haven't even gotten out yet, my long weekend hunting plans became getting in firewood weekend. I got into a great spot for firewood and couldn't resist. I don't really need the meat and bear is not my wife's favourite(she loves all the other wild game we put in the freezer just not a fan of bear) so the motivation isn't there.
Nice!
Great thread and pics!
Thanks for sharing, and enjoy the meat...
Well done!

Thanks for the story, very inspirational! I too suffer from adult onset hunting, just caught the affliction last year :)
Most excellent of times, what a profound bless up!
This tale surely tells of nothing but the best of life here in BC. Congratulations, that sure is a great way to put a fine Bear in your picnic basket!
