What would he score?

I found this bear in an extremely high wind and there was not a chance he could smell me. I advanced until he started to move away going up hill. I yelled at him to get his attention and when he looked at me I retreated, at that point he turned back toward me and came back to his original...

Do you think a fly over would be a good way to scout a new area. Looking at unit 67 without a clue, so I am thinking a flyover would be the best way to get a look at the transition areas. I could do that the end of july.

I have the tag. Scouting started last weekend with a quick drive from Gunnison toward Sawtooth Mt. I went out Willow Creek thru Vulcan and past Right Springs. I think I am in big trouble. It looks like weather is in control of this hunt, I know it will be cold in nov and I assume migration...
