I used to bow hunt north of Princeton, specifically around Siwash Cr. and lake, Elusive Cr., Galena Cr. and east of Missezula Lake during the first week of September. I often saw bears, some were quite big, and several were colour phase. Last time I was in there was 2 years ago. (while stalking up through an isolated small slash following very fresh buck tracks, I came face to face with a huge old boar....talk about testing your heart, I could have touched him with the end of my bow)

Was up to me I`d just head up to Hazelton and hunt the Kispiox forest road,scores of offshoot roads,killer bear country.Nothing to see 25 or more in an evening.Good place to apply for the Grizz LEH too.They have bears like we have whities.
