Good to go! Can't wait to get out too early (who hasn't tried hunting spring bear around a frozen lake?)

First bear meh tagging a bear is easy and ends the fun of the chase too fast

Go find a big boy and enjoy the season doing it

Lets start simple 19” min

Right there with you, three of us are headed out in zone 3 this weekend.
Last year we had snow early April... And we still had 5 bears down by may 12. 2 of which were in April.

This year there hasn't been snow for atleast 3 weeks, it's broken 20 degrees multiple times including today and there's lots of green on south slopes... It's bear time.

Well you boys are always welcome to prove me wrong

It would not be a first for me so my feelings won’t be hurt if you do lol

Still too much snow to even consider it here

Already seen a decent bear, too bad it was on Saturday. Snuck up to 50 yards and watched em feed for a bit

I was just being funny (standards of funny might vary) I agree with you for the most part. Conditions are ahead of last year in Region 2, and from the sounds of it 3 as well, but it's still early. Some bears could drop soon, but personally I have no expectations (for us) for a couple more weeks. My brain is even fighting with itself telling me to stay home and hibernate a little... though if I can just make the drive out there I can lay around and catch a lot of zzzz's in the great outdoors. 3 hours hunting, 33 hours snoozing kind of deal.
