Hi All,
Does anyone have any experience/success with bear in the Bridge Lake area? Regions 5 and 3 as either are accessible from there. I'm headed up next week for a guys cabin trip and am on the fence about taking a rifle and snooping around for a spring bear. I'm not looking for anyone's secret spots just wondering if it's worth the effort or if I should just hang at the cabin and spend my time with friends.

Thank you,
Brian

No experience hunting Bear up there, so can't really help. However I did see one of the Biggest Black Bears of my life in a slash close to Bridge Lake while hunting Deer at a buddys cabin up there, I believe I was just north west of Bridge Lake up one of the logging roads iirc, probably 4-5 years ago for what its worth. I think there is a good amount of them in that country.

It’s definitely worth taking a rifle. I was in the area 2 days ago and came across a nice boar with a sow and another mature bear I wasn’t able to identify. This was all on a FSR on route to fish. Have fun!

Wavey Lake Rd, Windy Mountain Rd. There’s been some fires in the area since we moved away, but should still hold one or two bears
