heading to high level alberta in 2 weeks for an archery bear hunt with w& l guides. 2 bear tags and a wolf tag. i am fired up about the hunt, 6 full days and i am hoping to arrow a colored phase bear. has anyone hunted this area before? counting down the days!!!!!
You are going into some serious bush country. I live on the east side of the province and am almost as far North as High Level. Rest assured that you will come out of there with a bear. Have fun!
There is a lot of bears up there and big ones to.I went up 2 years ago, a friend and my self saw 25 different bears in 3 days before we let the string go .My friend shot a nice 19" blacky and my self was a 18" blondei.We say 2 grey and one black wolf and a couple of guys from the great lake area shot 2 greys.Have you ever been that far north before?Its pretty cool.We would put ourbaits out in the morning come back to camp for a nap then eat lunch and head out to the baits by 4pm.We would get back to camp around 1:30 or 2 am,have supper and go to bed .Then start the same thing the next day.You have a great time and the Big Ones will be the last ones to come to the bait,which could be the last 5 minutes of legal hunting. We will be wanting to see some pics when you get back.
Round here the bugs ain't so bad yet. Ticks and Mosquito's too....... just haven't been right for them yet. Best of luck on your hunt. Have fun and be safe. :darkbeer:
7 days and counting, just watched bear-n-down 7, i am fired up!!!!!!!! bow is tuned and arrows are flying great, next i will be washing the clothes and hanging them outside on the line to dry.
I went to High Level last year and killed 19" and a 20". I'd post pictures if I could figure it out. There are a bunch of bears running around that neck of the woods. If you go to Alberta Bear Buster's website, I am the hunter with the guide and his dog. That is my 20" bear. My 19" is also in the gallery section. I love bear hunting! Have fun.
2 days to go,bags packed and bow case set up,talked to the outfitter yesterday,3 hunters in camp this week got 3 seven footers with 3 days left to hunt!!!! said the big boys are starting to move, looking for sows.
