You know, with all the amazing photographers we have on HBC, maybe we should get an HBC screensaver together - or maybe...Marc, here's an idea: an HBC CALENDAR to raise funds for the site.

I'd GLADLY fork down some bread for that and I'd proudly give 'em out to friends too ;-)

[Mr. Dean]

Nice!

Where was that?

Sunshine Coast.

Thanks guy's.
There were few sightings on this trip. Snow is still pretty low. But it was nice just to get out! Cabin Fever has taken a whole new term of its own, around here... This was GOOD medicine for Mrs. Dean and I. Thanks too all that made it happen.


Now look at the 2 pic's of Momma Bear. Thats one FUGLY face!

[Steeleco]

Well myself and the kid tagged along with the D's and gang, we had a great time. We ourselves didn't see any bears, but these made the weekend whole.

This boy was ranged at 365yds and was a tough critter to snap a picture of as he wouldn't stand still. Can't imagine trying a shot at him??

[Iron-Head]

Steeleco, I think I know where you saw that guy. There are a few really nice bulls with some good lookin head gear kickin around that neck of the woods.

A mutual friend of ours has me convinced to spend the $6 and give the LEH a go?

I'm good, but not that good :roll::roll:

[Elkhound]

It was a dandy of a time. Too bad the bears did not co operate. Next time. When the snow is gone:roll:


As soon as I get time I will post up video of that ugly bear and her cub.

[hunter1947]

Nice pic Steeleco ,is this area you took the pic open for elk ???.

[Steeleco]

I know it to be LEH and I'm told only 2 rifle tags are ever given out.

[hunter1947]

I know it to be LEH and I'm told only 2 rifle tags are ever given out.
So do you put in for LEH in this area and what are the odds of getting picked ??? You don't have to tell me the odds because others might pick up on the area ,but I would like to know if you do put in for that area were you took the pic if you don't mind telling me. Thanks Wayne.

[kennyj]

Wayne the odds a few yrs ago were 400 to 1 ouch....... I think it was like 200 to 1 last year. Even most of the locals have given up trying for a draw

The 6-49 is one in 14 mil, I still buy them!!! I treat it as a lottery and the conspiracies don't bother me any more!!
