[QUOTE="Kroth29, post: 2154718, member: 115459"] 300 win mag is plenty of gun for the bears in that area. I took a bruiser of a bear in the area you are planning to hunt. ~300# cinnamon phase with a white apron. Plan on steep terrain and using optics to save your legs. Going after every bear you see isn’t possible, but do be mindful of long distance kills on these bears as a lot of terrain could find you killing a bear in some almost unretrievable areas. One night hunting we glassed 12 bears on an adjacent mountainside of all color phases. My buddy shot his bear at 467 yds and took 8 hrs round trip for retrieval. I shot my bear at 67 yds and it rolled 300 yds down the mountain. Wolves are there as we had two come across us during the night, but they were more afraid when they saw us and took off. Those areas you listed for hunting are a 2 bear area, and well worth the trip! I’m headed there in September for elk so take a couple bruins to preserve the population! Good luck and post a pic if your successful! [/QUOTE]
