Hunting in Grizzly area

[325]

We’ve been using a Pack Alarm for a few years now. They really work. Last year we had a grizzly come into camp about 1:30 AM. The alarm woke us up and sent the bear packing

Just the paranoid ones from the island lol

I bought mine when HBC did a buy several years back.

There's a new version out. Anyone interested in inquiring about a group buy?

Me too. I jimmied one up this spring with one of those women's rape alarms and some 40lb test fishing line. It worked but it's a pita to deal with.

When I am in camp and in my tent I will park my truck close and if something wakes me up I will hit the alarm on the truck lights will flash and horn will blare or keep beeping till I have my rifle by my side and flash light.

I have hunted with pack horses close to 40 years in the back country. Had a few run in with grizzly. A trick I use is after I shoot an animal and have prepared for packing it out I cut an pole and tie a piece of flagging o. It . I then jam it into the remains upright. When I return with the pack animals I look to see if the pole is moving or k ocked down . You can see this from a distance. This has alerted me to a bear on the kill a few times over the 40 years. Bears are being defensive claiming the food.

very good point about the animal being burried after a kill with the bears. Sister was young and chased a grouse into the brush and ended up right on top of a kill she was definitely a little spooked after that about the bears. when we back out animals we try our best to circle up high on the kill site and glass back down on it if the visibility is low to see if anything is their. Packed a bison out of the bush once in the october draw. guys where watching us on the hill side and lucky for us the sow and cubs came in after our last trip just after we left. same trip one destroyed our bbq. as soon as we have a kill down the bear spray goes on.
seen a grizz hunter once as he was getting loaded into the chopper. he shot his boar then compound fractured his leg not to far from the kill site. Spent his night up on the hill and definitely had to defend off the bears all night that as they where circling him all night long. scary times!!!!

I'm fairly new to hunting big game, but to clarify you spray he animal down with Bear Spray? If so is that hide only or inside as well?

spray your fake down with bear spray?
Bear spray is ataully an attractant. They will actually come and lick it off things that it's been sprayed on.
