A classic tale Steve! I particularly liked your description of your approach to interacting with bears - 99% of the trip was hunt 1% harvest. Taking a standing bear with a long bow and having it fall over right there, WOW!

Have been following this all along, but took the time today to read it all in one setting. Adventures that most of us can only dream about! A big thanks to Walt as well! Felt like I was along with you. Look foward to the "condensed" version in an issue of TBM. Thanks again for sharing!! Mike
