Need some advice

Ok I'm hunting black bear in Northern WA state.. About 10 miles south of Canada in colville national forest. I came across some tracks side hilling over a little draw. Then I started noticing a lot of scat. All black definately from within the last few days. The game trail is heavily used and I follow it under a ponderosa pine and it looks. Like he is napping in there. I would like to harvest this one so I back out so I can come back with a rifle. Do you think I should set up hill and watch that trail. I'm pretty sure he is taking the trail to some choke cherries. Or did I blow him out of there and when he comes across my scent he is going to relocate?

You should be fine. Set up with good wind and wait. Good luck

Unless you disturbed the area and his bedding spot,your good to go.Remember he may not use it every day.Be patient,the Javelina I hunt only pass thru once a week.Hopefully you pick the right day!Good luck.

get your rifle, find the trail it is probably napping and would be there for hours.

Wow ...I hunted the ridge about 3 miles in. Got into an area with 15 scat piles in 10 yards. Even saw some wolf tracks. Well I hunted the bottom 3rd of the slope on the way back. I ended up snapping a truck 200 yards from the truck and he took off, I saw is back half illuminated by the sunlight then he ran to private property. He is color phase. I'm think I'll go back in the morning.

And today he was hanging out in the river next to the road.
