Quick question for those who have lived/ hunted in grizz country. I know the basic rules for coexisting with bears as far as food storage, game cleaning, general awareness, etc. However, one thing I haven’t seen discussed is how to balance early morning/late evening hiking to glassing points and back to camp in bear country.
For example, if planning to hike a couple miles in every day, do most guys just roll the dice and go, stick only to well established paths, only go on horseback/motorized vehicle, etc? The thought of bears doesn’t cause me concern, but trying to sneak to a glassing spot at 430 in the morning seems like a good way to get real close to a bear without knowing it.
Any thoughts out there?
