Tulameen fsr for bear

[lakelander]

Okay last weekend to find a bear. Does anyone know what the snow levels are like on Tulameen fsr from the Coq? Never hunted for bear there so let me know if I'm wasting my time there and maybe should head out Squamish way instead. Thanks

The last weekend for you or of the season? Looks to me like the season is open until the end of June in that area.

We just returned from Tulameen, didn't get up that way but the Locals say it's clear of snow.
Lots of bears in the Princeton / Tulameen are, Son has been thru there the last week, seen lots, just picky on what he shoots so nothing shot at yet.
A fellow HBCer was renting a cabin across the road from us, got a nice big boar a few km out of town.

There was fresh snow up high Friday night and one road I still can't get into due to the high snow still on the road, but it's not a road you'll find if your new to the area. All other roads are open but one hill in particular is real greasy, if you don't have 4x4 and good recovery gear, if you see mud, turn around!!

Tulameen is going good right now. Depending on how big of a bear you are looking for. We saw 5 bears last weekend but only want a 6' bear or bigger.

There was a really nice Cinnamon Bear in the Manning Park Lodge Parking Lot yesterday when we drove home.
Nice size, great looking pelt but probably not a good place to hunt.

Not picky as it's my last weekend. Glad to hear lots of bears in the area. Will give it a shot..thanks.

Thanks for the heads up.

Was at Tulameen for the weekend, took lawless to the coq, no snow, some higher up on the mountains, but nothing fresh I could see from down low even with the rain we got over the weekend.

Steeleco how’s your bear pursuit? Lakelander, you get yours?

[Tim Tam Slam]

Just saw you posted a b day bear thread, reading now!

[Leaseman]

There is the odd bear or three there.....harder hunt due to the late thaw....so high up.

[Steeleco]

It snowed like hell Sunday morning. And there is still more old snow up there in June than in early May last year.

Nope - we only saw one that we got to about 200 yards before it scented us and took off. Good luck
