I enjoyed reading your bear hunting story, and dreaming about getting to alaska someday. Looking forward to seeing more pic, and reading more stories of you hunting adventures to come.

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
