Hello,

Just wanted to show off my first bear. I've been wanting to get one since I was a kid growing up in Pennsylvania and finally got my chance while I was out during the Idaho general deer season. I've hunted for a bear exclusively the past couple springs but haven't had any luck, so it was quite a treat when this beauty walked out after a long day running ridges and glassing for legal mulies to no avail. She was super fat and I left a lot on the hide for fear of messing it up which made for a character building pack out. She measured out to be a touch over 5' from snout to tail.

Flytrue,
the bear tumbled down into a real steep creek bed type of situation with lots of boulders so I was down in a crevice of sorts. I unfortunatly have no idea how heavy it was. It felt quite heavy and had a ton of fat in it, I would like to think it was at least 200 pounds.
