Havasuhunter Report post Posted September 26, 2014 My cousin is helping an outfitter guide Elk hunters in the Wind a River Range and a few other places this year. He said they had a very close call with a Grizzly recently. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snapshot Report post Posted September 26, 2014 Back in 1990, I guided a few elk hunters for an outfitter in theMadison Valley/ Lee Metcalf wilderness in Southwest Montana. There was one day when we packed out an elk on horses, and came back through there the next day. All the entrails, and legs we left behind were covered in a big pile of dirt. A Grizzly had found it overnight. There was also another guide and hunter in camp who ran into a Grizz feeding in a berry patch. The Grizz stood up and the the hunter decided to run, even when the guide told him not to. Both the guide and hunter had to climb a tree. The hunter was scared shitless, but he was a bit of a pansy anyway. All of us guides had .41, and .44 mags anyway. The Fed's up there love their Grizzlies. If you have to shoot one, you better have teeth marks on you to prove justification , or it turns into a huge ball of red tape. I would rather deal with the red tape.

CouesWhitetail Report post Posted September 26, 2014 Thanks Biglakejake, that's it. (for some reason, I'm not able to "quote" ..... It does not work. Any ideas why? The quote and copy/paste problem is because Internet Explorer browser isn't working perfectly with the forum software. Try a different browser like Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome (both free). Should fix the problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
