We arrived home Thursday from our 5 day trip in Idaho. Weather conditions were less than ideal, but huntable. We saw a total of one bear. The last few years we have left on the last Friday of April and have had lots of success. Last year we got three bears in 4 days. The green up was way advanced compared to other years. I believe this caused the bears to spread out and go high earlier than normal.
I got out yesterday. Decent weather. I found a new glassing spot that I liked. I saw white tailed deer, mule deer, turkey, and a coyote. The turkeys and yote were both on private land. No bears though.
