[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1527173, member: 4191"] I have not been to your hunt area, just to clear that up. But hunted Kodiak for bear/deer multiple times. Around 8-10 times. A good deal of time glassing is a good idea. But glassing different areas is also smart if you see little to nothing after watching an area for a while. I think I posted earlier, bears have been much more active from morning daylight until ~9:30 - 10am, when I've hunted spring brown bear. Try to be glassing those morning hours. Those morning hours will be darned chilly until the sun starts to shine on your body! Also glass the evening hours as they seem to be out and about then more so too. Working on a morning killed bear is nicer/ convenient, than one killed in the evening. I've done it both ways. So I don't pass on a large evening boar. If you're restricted to foot travel, not terribly tiring while hunting. You'll travel some to an observing/spotting location, and then be resting and watching the terrain. The serious exertion comes after a kill, if you're a good distance from base camp. [/QUOTE]
