If you're hunting in region 2, this is exactly what you should be looking for. Don't be discouraged by the thick stuff, close quarters hunting bears is probably the most exhilarating thing you'll do. If you're into good fresh sigh, stay put, keep your eyes and ears open. Keep the wind in your favor and you'll likely smell the bear before seeing.
Huntin, fishin, and lovin every day.
