2021 California Bear

[David Gough]

There goes plan D-F… that fire is about to burn through one of my old go to spots. Took the day off work to get everything out of my family cabin up there. Dropped a couple trees, put sheetmetal over the vents, and cleaned up the 50 foot defensible space. Hoping the winds don’t shift like forecasted and it keeps burning north.

At this point I'm going to go hunt on the edge of the burn of plan A. Then wander around until I find a bear...or not.

Sorry to hear about your cabin. Hope the fire moves the other direction. Gives us some perspective. The bears will be there later or next season...and more of them.

Yeah I'm somewhere in plan D-E right now. I've got three C zone and D zone "go to" deer spots that have all burned and was hoping to fill my bear tag there too. Who knows what will happen in another month.

Nine more National Forests closed.

Plan N is in the works…as in new area.

Plan O, for out of state

Can you imagine the amount of hunters heading to the d5 border WHEN they extend the closure into rifle season.

At least opening weekend is still viable for archery.

I'm looking forward to Saturday.

Looks like a good one!

I’d honestly shoot a bear over a blacktail any day. Going to check out B zone this year and target bears with a deer tag in my pocket just in case.

This is basically my plan as well. Except with mule deer.

Pray the fire season fizzles out soon, there are still spots to go, just gotta drive, deal with the fn smoke.

According to the CalFire Caldor Fire map, there is now a massive dozer line directly through the spot I had planned to hunt. Not the general area or nearby, but the exact clearing/drainage I was going to sit on

The spot will be more flat for next year

I'm just going to say it. The last half of this summer has sucked. Just leaves the HT NF open.

Yeah it’s been truly tragic what’s happening to so many. The loss of homes , businesses and habitat are devastating.

Cool so cutting trees and rounding up livestock is safe while hunting is banned

My bow is still in the shop, so my archery season is over regardless. Hoping someone from here found a bear before the forest closures.

Oh no!

I'm so excited for bear hunting this year!

Same here! Its my first year out.

 

[David Gough]

Going to have to whack one with a rifle this year!

They are in full force this year. Im on 50, near the caldor fire, and they have been everywhere this year. They just partially opened the national forest, might shoot up ice house area this coming week....
