[QUOTE="sp6x6, post: 1060058, member: 21869"] Phorwath,Yes you have big time big bears up there.The big blacks are the size of our common grizz say 7' type.Whole different beast than down here.My son shot heis first bull across this river on a natural lick. I had only been there one time ,but had a small window of time before our next day hunt.I saw a herd come out and waited to legal spot to shoot,my son shot 5x7 bull with his 243 twice in lung at 350.Bull was down at water line.This happen be border of Glacier Park so I want no conflict of person saying we where in park and dont know recover rules, so I call F&G.They direct me to park,this all takes time,finally about 11 dark thirty a park ranger shows up for recovery.We have to wade river and go about mile to elk kill,my boy only 12 and not to big.I have to pack him on my back to cross river waist deep.I get to river and tell my boy to sling my pistol 44 over shoulder and ranger says you cant take that in park. I say Im not going on a night elk recovery with out it, he says rules and a have this "12 gauge" with slugs, Im like ok:DWe hiked far enough that at one point he thought we didnt get elk,I said I saw both shots and how it piled up on top it rack kept it from being swept into river.stone dead.There it was just as I said,quite the pack for me next day with whole elk and to small raft:) [/QUOTE]
