[QUOTE="Dave King, post: 41576, member: 3"] WaffleMan here with a Fort McMurray bear report just before Chris and I head off this coming Saturday. I talked with Vern Mochid last Sunday while he was changing out hunters, first set ending and second set arriving. First set of five(5) hunters had 100% success, three (3) archery types and two (2) rifle types. Five (5) bears were killed, one color phase. None of these fellas opted for a second bear (USD $500 additional for the second bear for the non-deal price hunters) One hunter had three (3) misses before he finally connected the last evening. Average size bears but no specific sizes were stated as none were in the 7' range in which I'm interested. Vern reports the weather has been aittle chilly, snow for the first set of hunters for a while, temps now appear to be in the very low 30's at night and getting to mid 50's during the day. Bear sign; Vern reports tracks and some glimpses of several bears in the high 6' range but these larger specimines didn't seem to want to come to the first set of hunters, don't know about the second set of hunters yet. I suspect Chris and I will have a change or two at some very nice bears and we each have two (2) bear tags so we can be a little loose on our first bear. Get packed up Chris, we're getting close. Next bear report will be an "after action report". [/QUOTE]
