Still a little early in the north Okanagan, at least on most crown land access. Lower down on the valley floor bears have been spotted, but most of that area is posted.

Welcome to HBC.

Sorry to hear about your 30-06, but I am sure the 300WSm will soon become a favorite!:smile:

Welcome also, don't worry about the .06 I'm sure the registry will work just fine!!! You will however, not likely miss it once you get use to the short mag.
