I posted this in the bears, lions, etc. forum too but I thought I'd post in the local thread too. thanks.
hey all-
my party of three drew our first ever spring bear tags in northeast oregon this year. sled springs-chesnim tag. we've hunted elk over in that country for years, but this is our first ever spring trip. just looking for some advice on how to hunt these buggers. we understand it's a spot and stalk game in the canyons, but just looking to expand the knowledge base. our trip is planned for may 5-10, only time that works into all our schedules so hopefully the weather cooperates. my questions are time of day? south-facing slopes? creek bottoms? any specific types of forage/cover to look for? we're not rookies in the woods, just to the spring bear thing. thanks in advance for any help!
