Thank you very much for the information. I do have the chip and will indeed purchase a bear tag. As for access into the unit, it looks like there are several roads, but a lot of them run through private. I understand that going out and looking is ideal, but I figured it was worth a shot asking around. It doesn't really look like there is running water in there either. Might make for a heavy pack!
