Great story.  Thanks for sharing.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

My hats off to you for being bold enough to follow your dream  :notworthy: . I really enjoyed reading about your underwear bear, and look forward to more tales from the north as you live them.

Thanks for all the kind words.


Jerry, Thats a great picture. I think a person could have gotten at least one shot. I remember seeing that picture last summer while I lived in Kodiak. Bears were thick in 2008. Locals say there were more bear sightings than ever before. I personally stood 15-20 yards from several bears while fishing on the rivers. My camera was acting weird so none of my pictures turned out.

Hay Phil, Good to see your from Glendive. I went to collage there from 1996-1998. Great times and great community.

I do have a short deer hunt I went on after Christmas that I will share some other time. I will let this one soak for awhile.

Thanks everyone
Olin
