Wait a minute... I got lost. What happened to "I was so close I could see the rain drops on his coat, claws on his paws, and the whites in his eyes?"
How come we didn't get to kill no bear????

Steve, this has been a wonderful read! I admire you, Benny, and Charlie for your efforts. Thanks for taking me places I will likely never physically go to.
I hope the USFS will report back to you with their findings about the mass grave site. Would love to know what this was about.
Praying for the best for Donnie.

tm,
Cause the bear was already dead! I would have liked to have been the one to have killed that bear but another bear beat me to it. When I spotted it we didn't, at that time, KNOW it was dead. It was actually quite creepy slipping in on it because it wasn't "acting right". I have been within 20 yards of probably half a dozen brownies looking for that perfect shot so it wasn't just because it was the first.

Al33,
US Fish and Wildlife Service is USFWS. Actually, archeological sites are protected and information on their location is not releasable under FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) so I do not anticipate hearing anything from them.

Sorry about that Steve... I went back and reread the post and now I see where I missed the boat! I was just looking forward to killing a bear right along side of you... I have enjoyed the stories.

Thanks Steve,
Great story once again. Thanks for taking so many of us along for the ride. Just from the responses here I am sure you know never to take the opportunities you have been afforded for granted. Youare living a lot of our dreams. Hope to share some Alaska soil with you someday when I make my dreams a reality.
Continued prayers for Donnie.
