stanley Report post Posted May 23, 2017 From a trip to Alaska (out in the SW part of the state) about 20 years ago. We had NO part in the hunt, but spent some time at the lodge fishing and exploring. The skinner said it was an 11' + bear. I don't know for sure, but it was BIG!!!S. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattnduke Report post Posted June 3, 2017 This is not photoshopped. That's my hometown in Soldotna, Alaska, in the local hardware parking lot. It was not 11ft though. I'm pretty sure it didn't break 10ft, but close. I live in Scottsdale now, but was up there hunting black bear and was lucky enough to harvest a nice blackie the day before this bear was shot. I was on my way through town after dropping mine off at the taxidermy, and this bear was in the parking lot. I stopped and saw it, such a massive animal!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
