Hello all,
I've been looking into hunting black bear in the west for several years now and will be trying to finally get out this spring. The area I plan to hunt is unit 106, making day hikes into and around the great bear wildness from flathead national forest lands. I will be hunting with a partner and we are planning on dispersed camping in the national forest near the road system so we have mobility if needed. My OnX marks multiple sites as dispersed camping sites in the area. I assume you may dispersed camp elsewhere as well, as long as you are not in the river corridors? I am planning on contacting the parks service to make sure we understand all the rules, as neither of us have hunted or camped in Montana. We are also both new to grizzly country. I will be doing some serious homework on identification. Mostly I'm looking for any advice on common mistakes or violations we need to avoid, both about hunting and being on the land in general.
