Last Fri/Sat my son, "Dutchie" and myself went out for an overnight hunt for our first black bear-- we have seen many in the past, but whether we were too slow, noisey,or whatever ,we have not been able to get a shot off.
Sat morning,after dealing with a punctured tire--bad rocks-- and getting back into the bush we saw this fellow

then we saw this crawling into a drainage culvert

Later in the day around noon we startled this up a tree ( here's blackie)

I would like to send extra kudo's and thanks to "Steelco" and his family for his assistance with processing our animal--he gave us the lowdown on easiest ways to gut, skin and quarter blackie--very knowlegable and tremendous person-- his wonderful family almost seemed to adopt us--thanks for the burger etc. hope to be able to do the same for them or others in the future. http://www.huntingbc.ca/forum/images/icons/icon14.gif
